If you'd waited a little longer--
stuck around and stayed patient,
focused on me for a quick moment--
be it for another minute or hour,
you would have seen my heart break.
Fracture lines became
crevasses tonight,
leaking my every emotion
into night.
It's not like it's a rare occurrence.
This has happened
more than once before,
but sometimes I'd like you to
wait,
just a little
longer.
