Wait for It

Now is not the best time.

The unpleasant present
you hold in your hands ...
wait for it
to become grains
of falling sand.

The menacing opponent
this imprisoning moment ...
wait for it
to serve as a component.

The darkening day
of uncertainty and fear ...
wait for it
to suddenly become clear
and the sunshine
of a better time
to certainly appear.

The barren tree
bearing bare branches ...
wait for it
to bloom with new chances.

The entertaining game
whatever type
of hyped bout ...
wait for it
to eventually
sequentially
play all the way out.

The demon in disguise
screened from human eyes ...
wait for it
to be disrobed
by the light.

The worthless substance
of the unchanged
same old ...
wait for it
to transmute into
true gold.

The seeming end
of the matter
of shattered dreaming
and heart ...
wait for it
to mend
into a blessed
fresh start.
