Waiting

She sits and watches
Monitoring even his slightest move.

Keeping busy, making nice
Doing that in which he would approve.


Waiting for something to change
Waiting for the laughter to be enough


He still calls her by name
With just a simple "honey".

He sets oblivious in his frivolity

While she worries and frets over money.

Waiting to be set free
Waiting for a new life to begin


She is not willing to let go
Because of the induced pain.

To let go of one hand and take another
And an eternal promise would be her gain


Waiting for some relief
Waiting for someone to intervene
Waiting is never easy
When dealing with the unseen


"But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." ~Isaiah 40:31
