I waited

I waited for the monsoon rain,

By peeping through the window pane,

I waited for the golden days,

By seeking out the sunny rays,

I waited for the mystical may,

To collect the gleaming summer ray,

I waited amid the dreamy sky,

Where all my dreams could happily fly,

I waited for the better days to come,

To count my blessings, at least some.

I waited by ignoring the present,

Keeping the hazy vision of the future to represent.

I wasted my time and waited,

Shunning the reality that felt so unrelated,

Keeping the gleam of this golden dream,

Until it faded.
