The Patient Heart

The morning is not far away,
The chaos and the strife,
but for now my quiet thoughts
are of a different life.

I know that somewhere in the night
Another heart beats true
And someday, when the time is right,
I know that I’ll find you.

But that time is not here or now
And I am in no rush
So I will wrap my patient heart
In night-time’s soothing hush.
