I will wait
while I can
or as long as it takes;
and,
at the end of the road
when we will meet
I am sure
you will have
no complaints;
I might be angry
but I promise
I will not ask
what took you so long;
Just the thought
of reaching
where I belong
is enough
to heal
the scars that I am
carrying along;
I will keep
the hope alive
while I can
or as long as it takes;
and on dark scary nights
I will protect
hopes and dreams
from all
the demons of the lights;
I might not have
any words left
when they talk
of happy stories
but this I promise you
I will think
of ways
of not letting
the flame of love
fade away ;
or let the passion die;
while I can
or as long as it takes;
I don't think
I really have
a choice;
I have to
and I must
survive;
Let's see
how many
eternities
it will take;
and how many
I can stay
alive;
May be , while I can
or May be, as long as it will take..
