If I could learn to love,
I'd refuse to wait and find you now
So I could love for a lifetime.
If I could find true happiness,
I'd savor it to the end--
An end of joy, not bitterness.
Alas, I stand undone,
Waiting simply for my time to come.
A mortal waiting for divinity,
I am hoping, but not yet finding.
I'll lie in wait while in this life
And hope for love, happiness, and more.
Who's to say that hope is dead?
I still use it every day.

Cody, you're an amazing writer and keep getting better and better. I really enjoy reading your poems. You definitely have a way of portraying emotion through words. This one had a real impact on me, just thought I'd let you know. Especially the last 2 lines. It may not be the best poem, but it's really, really good.
