Can I find the patience to wait these last few steps? <br />I have had such a long journey thru time, space and pain <br />Suffering that no one should ever be subjected to, most of it self inflicted <br />And yet here I am on the precipice and I can’t seem to sit on my hands <br />I want to force these finals rungs I want to control and manipulate <br />I want to make it happen…to make US happen <br />To have you back in my life has been my focus for what seems eternity <br />Here I am waiting as really I always have been <br />I am sick with anxiety I want this journey to end <br />The quest is so close to being over I can see the end on the horizon <br />I am almost home I am almost home <br />Or is this all just another expectation <br />Another pain from the journey <br />Another lesson to be taught and learned <br />Am I just being negative now? <br />Am I being doomsday and allowing the failing energy to seep in <br />Should I remain confident that you are coming back to me? <br />Should I keep the positive energy flowing. <br />I ask myself again… <br />Can I find the patience to wait these last few steps?<br /><br />Joe Rivas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/can-i-find-the-patience/
