I waited
September 30, 2021
I anticipated
Held back and hung fire
Sat tight and waited
I gazed at the starry sky
The forbidden galaxies
How the stars hold secrets
Marvelled at the chalky moon
And waited
The wanted never seems to happen
I felt the burdens of history topple
How the air was thin and dangerous
I touched the stars in my dreams
I felt the magic exploding
Stayed awake for the entire night
Just to see the wholesome sight
And waited
I love and hate then hesitate
Dream and smile then fall back to sleep
I want to believe the sunshine
So I let the magic happen
Because I waited

Everything beautiful comes after waiting. Even if it's long, it only happens if you wait. Just at the right time, it appears every blue moon. Wait for your next blue moon.
