I'VE BEEN PATIENT
i shall become independent.
i will hold my will.
i won't need you anymore.
i won't want you the way i did.
i won't miss you no longer.
only the wind can carry me away,
but i won't stay weak for long.
only a broom can sweep me off my feet,
but i won't fall anymore.
only an end blood flow can bruise me,
but my heart will beat repulsively.

I've been patient.
i've never mind the waiting.
i've held the hurting against all.
i've suffered but dare not surrender.
i've thought, because i didn't want to know,
when that one day would come
when i should have no right to think of you.
i've been patient.

i see you not in my dreams
but before i awake.
i sense you by the ground i stand on.
you, i rely on to control my happiness.
you, i'd rather than sleep.
my alarm in the morning,
you are my knowing to life i'll live tomorrow.
i've been patient.
i breathe to speak of you,
i've held on to feel your presense
but i stayed waiting,
i've been patient.

my words i speak of truth,
my tone i've kept calm.
my voice i saved for you.
your body i willed to share.
the nights i do not mind to steal,
as long as i can feel your kiss
then i know today i will long for.
but of all,
i've been patient.
