The Waiting Game...

A Poem by Onlyme

the waiting game

what a horrible feeling

just waiting

to find out

the answers

to your gruelling tests

and exams

you have just

had done

over a series

of time.

To find out

do you have

some terminal life threating

disease

like cancer

You just

want to know

one way

or the other

At least

that kind of

makes it

a bit more

bearable

to understand

and to take in

I guess.

Do not get me wrong

no one wants to die

or to be told they

have something like

that at all.

It's the fear of the

unknown

does not help

as well.

let alone

the final answer

we all dread

to hear as well

as if

life could

not get

any worse

long run.

fearing

each new day

ahead

if lucky or not

you are

closer

to finding out

the scary truth

Mmmm.... life is like that...we think it's just skools and exams...but over a period...everything is a yes or no game... and always waiting.... sometimes can be very taxing on the soul...
I hope no one has to wait for report for some diseases....that's the worst kind....
Mmm... you always find words from simple things...nicely done Dee...
