I wait...i am waiting...i waited

I hate waiting...
I always value TIME
for me it is precious and my life depends on it.

Waiting is a waste of time
I could have done so many things in those minutes i spent in waiting

But here i am...waiting...anticipating
For an answer...for something
For someone...

I hate waiting

But then, i realized i have done so many "waiting times" in my life

Waiting in line
Waiting for my name to be called
Waiting for a parking space
Waiting for the bus to arrive
Waiting at an embassy

Waiting for my future...

So then...how can i hate waiting?

Actually...it is not the waiting that i hate
But the answer that will come after waiting

Will it be yes or no
It all depends on it

Having a "yes" answer will make the long wait "worth it"
Having a "no" answer is nothing but a waste of time and effort

Worst thing is: receiving a "maybe" answer
For it would only mean....i have to wait again

But what will you call a waiting that will not have any answer...
"no answer" at all

I have been waiting....anticipating....then at the end of the day....still no answer...

So sad. But then in life, things are uncertain.

The greatest thing in waiting though...
Is it gives you hope...
of something to look forward to...
of longing for someone
of waking up to another day

So no matter how i hate "waiting"

I will still be here....
Anticipating for the moment
Whatever the answer will be
