The Waiting

Trembling (at times) I wait

Pent up passion

behind a golden gate

The sifter begins its' dissection

through the use of a mirror-named Truth

The revelations are the pathway to perfection



An accustomed sting

paired with pieces of hope

They sing, dance, and prance

unaware of their joke

All the while refinement rants

Aching (at times) I wait



Rippling emotions yield maladaptive ponder

Glimpses of false beauty-introduced

Unguarded desires-beware-the heart will grow fonder!

But...this magnet is rare!

Reality settles...unrefused

Content (for now) I wait
