A Heart in Waiting

A Heart in Waiting

How can I commit

When time won’t bend or break?

How can I say "I love you"

When my heart is still unsure?

I don’t want to be unfair to you,

To lead you where I cannot go.

I wish for you to find your joy,

To be complete in all you are.

Someday, you’ll see the reasons clear,

Why I held back, why I stayed still.

For now, my silence speaks the truth—

A heart in waiting, not yet whole.

Omatee Ann Marie Hansraj
