Darling

Darling I have waited for you,
             to hold my hand & walk together
but you lead,
and I step back
             afraid of failing ahead;

Darling I waited for you,
             to initiate;
but when we meet,
             you still feel strange to me

Darling I have waited for you,
             to hold me in your sight;
but when I see,
             I see an eye strange to me;

I feel my knees falling apart

Darling I have waited for you,
             to let me in, to your heart;
make love to me,
             to be your part;

Darling but you don't,
             so I wait;
I wait another day, another night;
             alone for you,
till you don't love me true.
Darling I will wait for you.
