Waiting...

Whoever said that waiting was not easy made an understatement...
As you sit in anticipation waiting to hear your fate, every beat of your heart is almost a second late... Your nerves they run awry and your breathing almost cease, only the news you want to hear will put your heart at ease...
The door opens and shuts, but it's still not your turn, everyone waiting with you or came after you are now gone... But still you sit in silence with your heart beating as loud as a drum, waiting in almost fear to hear your final outcome...
Finally the door swings open and out comes the boss, with files in hand, at you he looks across... You rise from your seat as he signals you to come, your heart beating faster as you're seconds away from hearing the outcome...
Your files we have seen, but we still need more time to decide... Give us a few more days and all knots should be tied.
Just when you thought the wait was over, it has only begun, so you set your heart at ease and start over, and the thought of giving up, from your mind you shun...
It isn't over until somebody sings, so strengthen yourself in the process, because the faint of heart never wins...
You may be waiting awhile for the things you need, but getting them is only half the process, the other half is how waiting made you feel... Stronger, more patient or a nervous wreck, at the end of it all you're a certified roughneck.
