"Long Waits, Short Temper"

I don't really see

The reason for a waiting spree.

Time is quickly running out.

The only thing I can show is a pout.

Why didn't you prepare in advance,

So that we can go in an instant?

You're wasting all the time.

Not just yours but also mine.

If only you'd move faster,

Then this would've been done sooner,

But no, you had to ruin it.

You just doused my spirit.

Tick tock tick tock, where are you?

You make me think if our meeting's true.

If you don't show up soon,

I'll leave you standing under the moon.

And so, the day ends in a snap.

IIRC, I had five long naps.

You have wasted an entire day,

So my anger shall slowly fade away.
