I can’t wait

I can’t wait for the time when I feel so helpless in love;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for those endless stares and that meaningful silence;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for when I miss her with every breath of mine;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for the sheepish smiles and countless chuckles;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for holding her hand and being on top of the world;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for sleepless nights or timeless thoughts;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for when I regret my acts and become more of a child;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for a little fight- the time when she apologises first;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for the world to seem worthless before her smile;

I can’t wait.

I can’t wait for when I roll on my bed throughout the night;

I can’t wait.

I can’t for you to come and sweep me away. 

I can’t wait for so long so I’ll need you now.

For you and for now, I will wait…
-Hariharan Sriram (The Skookum).
