Waiting...

I have spent my whole life waiting

For the departure of disappointments and the arrival of a new ones

I distract myself from the big waiting by the small ones and redirect my sight from crossing the sea to crossing the river

I destroyed my neck by looking high to the wall clock and lower to my watch

I have waited so much that I felt so little

And when something happens I can’t enjoy a blink without getting my next waiting delivered

The wait…

For the excitement of the new lover’s touch and the the recovering of an old wound

Starting a new waiting while thinking if we could have continued!

I have been waiting and life passed by

I waited so much and I forgot to live
