Impatient Heart
Your impatience, a shadow on your face,
A secret held, in every place.
In your haste, I see the truth,
A heart that's lost, a wasted youth.

Your impatience, a burden you bear,
A shadow that follows, everywhere.

Impatient Ways
Your impatience, a hurried light,
In your haste, no insight.
Every wait, a restless stream,
In your presence, no peaceful dream.
Your impatience, a guiding star,
In your rush, we wander far.
Thank you for the lessons taught,
In your impatience, understanding's sought.
With your haste, I see the truth,
In your impatience, proof.
About Someone
Hasty Heart
Your impatience, a hurried path,
In your haste, a hidden wrath.
Every wait, a restless beam,
In your rush, no peaceful dream.
Hoping you find calm one day,
And let your haste fade away.
Thank you for the clarity found,
In your impatience, my truth is bound.
About Someone
Restless Soul
In the urgency of your days,
Lies a world of restless ways.
Each moment you hold, each step you take,
Reflects a heart, that does not break.
Your impatience, a boundless light,
Turns darkness into sight.
With every word, every cheer,
You show a heart, sincere.
In your restlessness, life does sing,
A melody of everything.
Forever urgent, forever true,
In your spirit, life renews.
