I Will Wait for You

Deep down in the forest wait wait

where the road drifts,

I will wait for you.

They may not let me wait 

long there but

I will anxiously wait for you.

There may be many anglers passing by,

sniggering at my futile wait,

snickering at my puerility

but worry not;

I will keep waiting for you

And some may tell you

that it has been long

and that I may have moved on,

you should find your journey

but believe them not

for deep down in the forest,

where the road drifts

I will wait for you.
