Wait is eternal as long as the search is external

A devotee on orkut wrote a poem, asking Baba why does He make devotees wait, why does He make them suffer all kinds of agony. She asked Baba, why the Gopis and other sages, though closest to Him, underwent so much pain, even though they loved Him so much, even though they served Him all the time. She questioned if an " eternal and helpless wait " is the key to His Love, and if He is making us dance since He is God.I prayed to Swami to tell me something and I found myself writing the following:

The devotees wait for days and years,The longing of them is still within countsAnd Sai waits through their umpteen birthsMillions or billions, how long, only He knows!When joy rained, this mind praised Him, all in merry

When sorrow befell, it blamed Him, drooping in worryUnto it, pain or pleasure, neither did Sai carryHe only loved, and loved and loved like crazy.Whoever loved as Sai loved?Whoever served as Sai served?

He is the Supreme lover; He is the only giverNone does He favor more than the other!The wait is endless, the search is futileAs long as I deny the most obvious.Above and below, beside and behind

Other than Sai, nothing ever was.When all is Him, nothing but HimHow can I ever be separate from Him?At the end of all this fun and whim,He is me and I am Him.
