I Am Waiting
I am waiting, still waiting,
waiting to see you smile
waiting for one word from you
waiting for your heart to be healed
Every day when the sun is rising
I believe you will make my day,
I am waiting to see or to hear
or to get something from you
When I hear birds singing
I feel they are talking to me
I run to open my window
waiting for your letter to show up
When I hear winds whistling
and the thunder of black clouds
I am waiting for your love to rain
and drop down into my heart
In the stars’ eyes
in the full moon’s face
I see your picture clearly,
my hope, my love, and my future.
Turn to me, heal your heart,
be sure and have no doubt
you are deep in my heart and thoughts,
nothing is able to take you out.
