Patience

I am mostly very patient
I am not that way with love
My heart is desperate to be spent
On spirit to fill my cup

I miss being held in someone's arms
The scent of bodies close
Forget existence of what does harm
No longer feel exposed

I just have too much passion
For my own damn good
I can't even imagine
Someone who understood

Perhaps one day I'll find a
Person who makes me stir
Someone who dances in my flame
A love that needs no lure

Patience now, I keep in mind
Move on past the present
With bright, wide open eyes
I'll persist in my resilience
