Waiting

I waited to grow up

I waited to have my period

I waited to be a woman

I waited for my first kiss

I waited for my first intimate moment

I waited to love

I waited to be loved

I waited for that hand in mine

I waited for the kiss on my forehead

I waited for the connection

I waited for the intimacy

I waited for him

I waited for her

I waited for the question

I waited to marry

I waited for the time to have children

I waited on the job application

I waited on the house move

I waited on the garden to grow

I waited for him to notice me again

I waited for her to notice me again

I waited to raise my issue

I waited to listen to the response

I waited for my motivation

I waited for the perfect moment

I waited for the perfect creative idea

I waited on friends

I waited for their time

I waited for their love

I waited to be hugged

I waited to smile

I waited on my test results

I waited on a response to my health anxiety

I waited on my moment to ask a question

I waited for the right time to love again

I waited for the world to value me as a woman

I waited for men for notice me

I waited for men to give my attention

I waited for men to love me

I waited for a man to make me feel special

I waited to pass the time

I waited to speak

I waited in line

I waited to die

I no longer wait
