Waiting
in the poet’s love story
this juliet
in moonlight
she waits for her lover
sitting long nights
near open windows
looking out
at evening stars
head on soft pillows
with high thread count
he's late
as the moon falls
the sun climbs
while she waits for him
deep in her thought
she sings her lover's song
wondering
will they meet this night
will they meet another night
has he changed his mind
how many times will his song be sung
as she waits for him
