Waiting

by Kristina Harris - Aries

Love escapes...
like children released
for summer break.
Love creeps..
like the coming of winter
etched in a chilled wind
mingled with the lingering sunshine.
Love hurts...
like heartburn after a spicy meal,
'cept milk won't soothe it.
Love lingers...
like dust on your shoes
at the end of the day,
But you can't brush it off.
Love is sought..
it sits like patients in a drab 
waiting room..
I wish I were the doctor.
