Time Poem by Vera Sidhwa

Time. Where did I find it?
I found it the seconds I sat,
Waiting for my friend to come,
And after a while, he did come.

Time. Where did I find it?
I found it waiting for my child's sickness to lift.
I found it while watching the candle that was lit.
And after a long while, it was lit.

Time. Where did I find it?
I found it in waiting for my lover.
He made me wait so forever.
And after a long while, I found him.
