Patience is an Active Verb

Can we accept
the fact that
we will never get it all?

Or do we walk
away from one
who wants to
hold us so close
in the midst of
pain that is so
unknowable &
so misunderstood?

Might we find ways
to rail against
the one who can
take our blows,
take our words,
take our hurts, &
love us all the same?

Might we find ways
to wait upon
the one though
we might not
want to do so.
