Patience

Patience so near, yet so far you are,

I know not where you are;

Making my heart and mind sour!

Patience, you’ve got me waiting for a decade

Passing through many a facade,

Embellishing Time, with brocades,

Hide you do like a masquerade!

Patience, you make me impatient,

Wriggle and writhe in seeking my passion,

Last you do for a fraction,

Throwing me away in the desert of distraction!

Patience you make me oblivious,

You’re ways of teaching are mysterious,

Sometimes, even obnoxious,

Become then you do, fictitious!

Patience you are a virtue,

Mortal I am, dying to reach you,

Impeach you do against impatience,

Beseech you do, only but for Patience!
