Poems of the Deep Dark Heart

I Can Wait

Dear love, I do not go

For in hope I want you to know

That even if time will never run slow

My faith and love for you will always grow

Please don’t fear, don’t doubt

You may not believe me but at least hear me out

I speak of nothing less true

Just the truth about the way I feel for you

No matter how rich or poor you or I may be

It doesn’t matter if only you can accept me

I know I can’t give you the finest gown or a pair of glass slipper

But I promise you, my heart is one thing I can always offer

Until every grass and flower would die

Until every rock and tree would cry

Until the oceans and seas would bend

I will be waiting ‘till the end
