mareberry the urge to tell you grows more each day. with each passing hour i die a little, waiting for you, yearning to hold you near. i feel so alone, i feel so numb. i cannot stop the pain, the fear, all i have is this voice, these words, this longing to hear your soul speak to mine. and all i can do is wait. 990506

miniver I don't think most people realize how much talent and meticulous effort it really takes to sit on a fence for any extended length of time.

Hesitation is an art, I say. So say I. Also sprach Miniver. I ought be praised for what I neither do nor don't. Badged, even. Hwoo... The Badge of Indecision. And, to further digress, "badge", I find, is one o'those words that loses all meaning if you say/read it repeatedly...

Badgification. I'm waiting.

sadgoat My life is slowly, so fucking slowly, fading away
I just want it over
I just want answers
I’m so tired of waiting
I’m so tired of wanting
So now I cry for no reason and long for sleep.

Christy for the curtain to raise,
for your mouth to open,
for the end of the tale,
for a breath of fresh air,
for you to break my heart,
for my life to start

daxle for some sign of where you are, what you are doing, why you don't feel like having me know or just don't care
for her to call, wondering when she will, wishing I hadn't told him what I was doing already so I could exact some sort of subtle revenge by not telling him now
but the fact is, revenge rarely works, because the person will never notice if you do exactly what they do, because it is not wrong in their eyes
and so I suffer as usual because I am wrong for this world
and then the phone rings!

Jon Don't wait. It won't happen. Hope, allways. But never wait. You'll allways be disapointed. It can never happen. 001006

arinna it's almost over, i hope. the waiting to find that one thing that will be the reason to smile everyday, not a person but a passion. and i don't know if it will come up and find me, or i'll suddenly learn how to look inside myself and see what i love, but i'm sure the waiting will be over soon. 010302

Andrew Tibor Still here, still hoping my life will be worth something, starting to do things, starting to get better.
All I want is to be a hero.but I don't know if that's why im here. Maybe I should love God and not worry about the rest.

amicus waiting for something to happen. Who will take the next step? Or is it just escalating steps, tit for tat? However it happens, I rejoice everyday that this is happening. Only I don't know what this is... It's exciting, exhilarating. I'm just tired of the waiting. 011230

ClairE I'll learn how, and make a fool out of myself, and fall on my face in the dust on the way.

I'll walk down your straight dirt road.

reitoei waiting here, waiting for some one to chat with. not just anyone, im waiting for her. staring at my computer screen, begging for her little icon to pop up. listening the little fan go whir round and round inside the computer case. 020226
...
little wonder there was no answer
so i waited awhile
and then i wrapped myself in blankets
and curled up on the red_couch
i put the phone near my ear
to make sure i'd hear it when it rang...
but it never did
and i guess i could call you again
but this time i'm waiting
this time i'm not calling until you are there
or until you wake up
or until you're free
[i waited before for weeks, remember?]
i'll wait again this time too.

whitney and theres always the question

are we waiting for nothing
are we wasting our time
in ten years time
will we regret the days
sitting around for nothing

or if we try to start over
and look for whats better
in ten years time
will we regret letting go
and questioning something so great

will time kick you in the teeth
do you think they'll give us a second chance
should we even have to wonder what its like with someone else
should it be magical from the start
would you believe me if i said you werent a waste of my time?

jezabel dulcet throat has fallen silent
in the days of waiting,
the hours of waiting,
the moments, those scarlet knives
of waiting,
each moment tainted with
the ghost of your touch,
lit with the flickering tip of a ready flame thrower.

trixie the waiting hours between me and someone else are forever
the degrees of separation are getting smaller and smaller until that goal
and it makes my heart stop
my eyes tear
and i can't breathe
it's almost here and
after all these years
i am amazed
amazed i am still alive
i was sure i wouldn't live to see this year and this life
my hair was never going to grow
past my ears again
now it's halfway down
i am new again

it's in these waiting hours that i wonder what i was even waiting for
why ive committed my time, my life, to being on hold

soon i'll be not me but property of myself and a stock and dinner on the table

Caxton I'm sitting here waiting for you to come home, I haven't seen you all weekend nor have I talked to you, and I'm beginning to worry.
I lay here, and I think about you being with me, and I can't help but to think that you are with someone else.
I'm convincing myself that I'm in love with you, but my mind doesn't want me to be...
It scares me...I'm just waiting...
It hurts me...I'm just waiting...
It kills me...I'm just falling...

RoXXXie by john burroughs

serene, i fold my hands and wait,
nor care for wind nor tide nor sea;
i rave no more 'gainst time or fate,
for lo! my own shall come to me.

i stay my haste, i make delays-
for what avails this eager place?
i stand amid the eternal ways
and what is mine shall no my face.

asleep, awake, by night or day, the friends i seek are seeking me,
no wind can drive my bark astray
nor change the tide of destiny.

what matter if i stand alone?
i wait with joy the coming years;
my heart shall reap where it has sown,
and gather up its fruit of tears.

the waters know their own, and draw
the brook that springs in yonder height;
so flows the good with equal law
unto the soul of pure delight.

the stars come nightly to the sky;
the tidal wave unto the sea;
nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high,
can keep my own away from me.

LilyDragon I am waiting
again
wondering how it goes
wondering what the decisions will be
wondering if there will be a chance

and I'm surprised to find that
I am being
patient
calm
content

I missed you today.
Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.

I've said it before
I'll likely say it
again
and
again

All good things in time.
:-)

pete waiting is one of the worst parts of a day.. being ready, but waiting for that unknown time that just may never come.. waiting and letting the day slip by, watching the few clouds in the sky fade in to the blue warmth and the sun.. waiting.. really after two hours perhaps the time to be waiting has ended? 040329

pete just sitting there on the hill, she'll be here at 4, its 5 to four says the peace tower. look at those kids playing around the flame, i hope they dont decide to jump in the water-ish things. that would nto be good. four oclock. more tourists come by, they look at the kid playing his harmonica on a lightstand beside the eternal flame. four fifteen. four thirty. four forty. the busses have come and gone half a dozen times. i get up and walk down bank street to make my way home. i should have visited the parliment cats, looked at the statues of old prime ministers. i walked down bank street, listening to the kali yuga song, singing slightly to myself as i go, pondering the strange fact that no beggars sit on the east side of the road. strange indeed. i get close to the underpass.. i feel someone touch my shoulder, i turn around and there she is. shes been chasing after me for three blocks as i listened to my music and sang to my self. i got a meal of indian food out of the deal. waiting sometimes pays off in more ways then one can imagine before hand. 040406

really not important my life has slowed, and my heart has threatened to stop..but it just keeps on..pronounced heart murmer and all..it just keeps going..maybe i should eat more cheese..'cause man..don't think i can muster...hands on the keys..microphone at my lips..circle of white.there's sawdust on the unpolished floor..a small college bar..1:30 in the morning..a tuesday morning and they come here for the
