Patience

At that moment, 
It was what I wanted,
But not what I needed.

For I will accept
That which being offered,
Appreciate it.
But…
Will not infringe on that
Which I need.

For I don’t have
Unreasonable expectations,
It’s simple…
An exchange…

For I only expect that which I give,
Nothing more…
Nothing less…
That is my worth.

I will not compromise on that,
Which I knowingly deserve…
But will offer the time,
That is,
To see that which received…
Understood,
Acted upon.

For all I can do…
Will do,
Is offer my patience.
