Heart panics
Cause sister over there
Frantic
About when it will be her turn
Heart burns
Cause she has to learn
That patience is a virtue
Heart throbs
Cause sister got a crush
On a brother
Who’s possibly for another
Heart feels faint
Cause sister is told to wait
For the mate
Who loves true
Bringing divine elation
Not just sensual stimulation and
Blatant retractions
Of love supposedly lasting
Then disappearing
For fearing he may miss
The next Miss on the
To do list
Wait… she hears
Wait… with tears
Wait… she prays
Wait… her heart stays
Safe in His hands
