I lie in anticipation


Night and day I wait in anticipation,
of what eludes me, the wait that has kept me alive in my heart. 

That one day, the day I can say I've moved on to something better, leaving behind all that was bitter.

I lie in anticipation, to meet the new normal that I can live with, people I can love with.

I lie in anticipation to move onto better things, waiting for a day worth living for and a moment worth dying for. 

Unleashing myself to tie up that which was broken one last time, in anticipation of exposure to fragility.

I lie in anticipation that I shall find my feet again, to rise from my slumber and wander the dreams of a lover one last time.

I lie in anticipation to be married to my dreams one more time.

I lie in anticipation of life in all its glory, awaiting a life to love, then to live and alive to last. 

This is an ode to Qarib Qarib Singley!
