Powerful Poem: I’m Not Waiting for! – A Journey of Independence

This inspiring poem, ‘I’m Not Waiting For!’, speaks to the heart of self-determination.

I’m not waiting for

someone to show me, affection,

Because I have learned to love

myself enough.

I’m not waiting to

become someone’s priority

because I can never make them mine,

because for me, that is my parents always.

I’m not waiting for someone

to turn the page of my book,

As I can do that on my own

Because I can’t wait to see the next chapter that it offers.

I’m not waiting for someone

To make me smile

After crying the whole night

Because I have learned to pick myself up after every fall.
