Waiting Endlessly

March 1, 1997

Waiting endlessly

Enthusiastically anticipating

Morbidly brooding

When will the pain cease

	to fill my head

with the thoughts of the 

            absence there...
My heart bleeds white

       drops from its veins

while the arteries fill it 

          with my soul
Drowning in the fluids

            I open my thoat and try to swallow it all

Knowing that the only hope is

            to open my eyes and 

and watch myself float away in 

         yours ...
