The Agony of Waiting


Three days!

Three days become four, become a week, a month

How long will you make me wait?

“They also serve who only stand and wait”

And waiting has its own harvest

But the days slip like sand through my fingers

Am I greedy wanting more? More of you than memory

Like grit under my fingernails

My heart beats

The clock ticks

Sand falls

Hearts beat

clocks tick

sand falls
