I once had a candy bar and I hid it in a corner of my heart
I left it untouched and wished no one would find it
I came back to peek often times just to make sure it was still there
in one piece
And I would leave it again…to my own little world
Soon time got hold of me and I forgot about my candy bar
Whence I remembered I ran towards it and gave another glance
My heart pounded fast….
And it was still there.
I smiled gratefully.
This time, I dared myself to touch and smelled the kiwi and caramel scent.
It was still the same refreshing bar.
And then I left it again ..to my own little world.
I tried not to peek at my candy bar but it was always on my mind.
I dreamt of it night and day. I missed my candy bar.
But I know it wasn’t time.
Oh my candy bar…I hope u understand.
Then my heart whispered….my candy bar was ready.
And so was I.
I came back and took my candy bar…looked at it for a long time.
Smelled it a few times over all sides
And a smile was drawn on my face.
I opened my candy bar…..and I took a bite of it.
It tasted so delicious.
How sweet is the fruit of patience…
