Waiting In Vain Poem by Mary Joy Lumanog

It seems like a thousand years
To see my life to bear a pear
It's so hard to comprehend
Trying hard not to depend
On things I use at hand
To make things to rise

Waiting seems just like a dream
Trying seems like no end
Suffer for there is no bound
Cry for tears is for last

To promise is a word to say
But waiting is hard to make it stay
Making it happen is just like a surmise
It end up just like for a cipher
A wind that can never grasp

Hoping is just like nothing
To wonder just to feel brighter
But never could it come
For waiting just it all are
Just like a thousand years
That had gone!
