for a long time i've waited.
waited for my parents to care and come pick me up and save me until the day i realized they weren't worth the wait.
since then i've waited for the person i took for granted to just hold and squeeze and say "you are my worth, you are worthy, you defined worth and you showed me to realize what mine is. so for a long time i'll be waiting to see your face . i've waited and hoped that people i surrounded myself with would change. waited for a shift in many hearts. i've waited for so many things for so long and i failed to realize that the one message that was engraved in my head gradually slipped away getting lost into someone else. so again i wait. waiting is painful, exhausting, it is grief. waiting is all that until the day you realize you need not longer wait. so i choose not to wait. For people, for change of hearts,  for saviors, for happiness. it will come to you when the time is right.and you realize the word "waiting" doesn’t  even cross your mind. you've officially realized that you are WORTH more then what you know and what people think you are.
