A description of patience

Suddenly the room became dark
So dark I couldn't find the light switch
I shuffled around helplessly
Straining my eyes to see more as I grew scared
I was alone and I couldn't see anything in front of me
I couldn't shout out as no one could hear me
I was alone up here in this house and I couldn't stop the shivers
The night was in full now as it crept closer to the morning
I was curled up in a ball as the cold surrounded me
I had my eyes closed and I was sobbing
I just had to wait
