Waiting for you to get home <br />The hours seem to drag on <br />Hanging around by the phone <br />In anticipation for your call <br /> <br />Pacing the room so carefully <br />Trying not to disturb the scene <br />Glancing at the clock repeatedly <br />As if time would pause <br /> <br />Watching the candles burn <br />Spread the aroma in the room <br />Leaning over the window pane <br />Drawing images of you coming home <br /> <br />Waiting doesn’t slow me down <br />As the candles melt and burn <br />As the sun goes down the room darkens <br />The more my smallest desire awakens<br /><br />Kay Barcelon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/time-alone-3/
