price of patience

seeing white and green
can only see one color at a time
could not tell you the answers to some
questions that are staring me in the face
the facts that are so very present
myself as one who cares
about the price of patience
is something that has to be achieved
after much struggling with new emotions
are so hard to describe
how I feel as though I cannot
adjust myself to new situations
so simple to arrive at eight o’clock
and I will understand
all that you say
you are so comfortable
sitting where you are so stylishly present
another situation and I will succeed
at my spot when I die no tears shall fall
from eyes uncaring unfeeling and quiet
as always reaching for unattainable goals
finally achieved…
