"As I Sit Here and Wait" a poem

As I sit here and wait
My Mind slowly does churn
Memories of you around and around.

The sound of your soothing voice
The smell of your infatuating scent
The touch of your smooth skin
The sight of your unmatched beauty

Time turns to stone
As I wait alone
Unrighteous anger makes me its home.

The sound of him making you laugh
The touch of his hand in yours
The sound of his endearment to you
The touch of his lips to yours

My fists are clenched
Sweat crosses my brow
I fight the anger away.

It makes me sunken and hollow
It tells me I will never have a chance with you
It creates my depression
It foretells my unhappiness

But I fight my anger away.

The anger banished
I sit and wait
Now only a test of my patience remains

As I sit here and wait
Our lives go on
I await the time when they'll combine
