Wait For Me
by Lynn White
Wait for me here.
I’ve put up a sign
so that the others
can join you
before nightfall.
Wait for me here
with the others.
There’ll be others
waiting.
Waiting,
for someone to find them
but someone else, not me.
Wait for me here.
Sit by the sign
so you don’t get
lost.
Lost
like the others
waiting.
