Analysis of patience will prevail



I thought I had you
just wait you said, your day will come
i have to get a few things situated.
i waited.
waited.

patience will prevail

i held out hope, just one more day.
always one more day.
then the news came i wanted.
my day has come, patience prevails.
then you were gone.
miles away.
i called twice a day.
still a chance im told
just one more day.

patience will prevail.

then there you are, and him beside you.
your pictures look so happy
but not because of me.
i hate you so much.
i want nothing to do but hate you.

yet i find i cant.
for some reason i hope.
one more day im told.

patience will prevail....
