Time Has Passed
I ignored and left
All opportunities
For the success of my career
Since I waited
Multiple years of hopes
That someone may come
Into my life
To travel together
A journey of love and devotion
In sad and happy times
Hand in hand
Shoulder to shoulder
Step alongside step
Alas,
Someone waited too
With the same expectations
But for someone else,
Not for me
It was a pain
And a failure of both
The time has passed
However, hope still waves,
And swims in the eyes
That, Perhaps, might become,
A certainty.
