Waiting on fear

by Jackie Prahl   Jun 26, 2006


Lost in the touch of the world
the pain all spins to an abrupt stop
everything seems to have been forgotten
but today is just another day
I'm waiting on fear
and everything I am
tomorrow comes with horrid news
of surgeries and tests
things that could send me to hurtling pain
tomorrow comes with the fear of today
not knowing my place
whats wrong and whats not
spin me till I puke
cut me open with a rusted nail
give me my news
what does my future hold
am I heading to surgery, and kemo
is life as I know it going to stop
have you never been afraid?
tomorrow comes the scars and knives, tests and death?
you keep me waiting
sleepless just at 17
Do I have cancer?
am I going to die?
tonight I wake with fear of day
you keep me waiting...
waiting on fear

(?Cancer?)
