if nothing else
waiting tells us
that we are still
not ready
for what is to come
not ready
for an answer
we cannot yet fully live
not ready
for an existence
we cannot yet maintain
not ready
for a life
for a life
we cannot yet sustain
there is a ripening
that still must take place
the fruit is not yet ready
to be plucked from the vine
it needs more time
to become
so we wait
the process of becoming
cannot be hastened
nor can it be shortened
time must run its course
so for now we wait
and still we wait
