~ Patience ~

Patience ..........

I am waiting
Though not in stillness as I wait

I am hoping
Though not in despair as I hope

I am dreaming
Though not in darkness as I dream

I am longing
Though not in emptiness as I long

I am trying
Though not in futility as I try

I am learning
Though not in ignorance as I learn

I am becoming
Though not in nothing as I become

I am being
While eternity teaches me patience
