Waiting

The World was calm and quite

All the living creatures seemed tiered

They were under the warmth of their shelter

Surrounded by their loved ones with tender

A hearty meal chewed with loads of chatter

And a few stolen moments with the lover

Busy teenagers chatting with friends

Mothers completing their daily chores

Fathers catching up with the World news

Wailing babies and snoring oldies

However, there I was

 Waiting and waiting

I was staring through the window sill

Silent drizzles evoking the earthy smell

Endless lights looking like a Princess’s jewel

Dazzling moon accompanied by diamond stars

Shrilling honks and swaying winds

Such a busy World it was out there

But, I was still waiting

With endless unanswered dreams

And an everlasting craving

My eyes were meandering

In search of the person claimed as mate by soul

It searched through the crowd in the earthy World

The wait seemed to be eternal

Heart was not ready to give up; I was not ready to give up

So, I am just waiting and waiting

Waiting for my other half who would sway me off my feet

Who would share my cries of happiness and grief

So there I was… Waiting!!!
