You have to wait to enter the world

For fingers, toes to become unfurled

You have to wait to come of age

Teenage hormones, filled with rage

Then, you have to wait to graduate

Take the time, to find your mate

You have to wait for health results

While all the doctors, do consult

You have to wait, to know what’s true

You have to know, what’s right for you

You haven’t got time, to sit around

This waiting game, is so profound

You have to wait, it’s so absurd

Wait really is, a four letter word
