Patience is that knot you get in your stomach,
When you feel anxious and worried.
Its that thought you think,
When your hopes seem buried.
*****
Its knowing that today,
May not be the day.
And having waited so long,
Youve nothing left to say.
*****
Its the long struggle
That never seems to end.
And all of the pieces
That never seems to mend.
*****
Patience is that feeling
Deep inside your heart.
When you know that someday
All your dreams will start.
