Patient Love

Oh be it not for my lonely heart,
I'd have the one that I have sought.
For in haste I do take,
what in waiting I can make.
Be it time I place the blame,
for in urgency I play the game.
As one would come along,
see it right when it is wrong,
To be unhappy but not alone,
to bide my time but pass the one.
Let I now find what love is true,
in hopes to find this love in you.
