Poetry Poll-So thank you guys for voting on my poll, i know its not closed yet but the results practically speak for itself.

The waiting-

Put on the long list

Like a transplant patient,

if one dies I'll take their place.

A single spot at a time, moving up the line.

How can I smile when I'm running out of time.

Every breath I take is another towards my last.

The reaper waits at my bed side each night to sing me to sleep.

While the sandman holds my hand,

I pray with my eyes shut tight to not awake the next day

Its a hope that never diminishes.

How can it when its fueled by a raging fire,

The flame isn't red though; its blue.

Blue for sorrow,

Blue for the let downs that never seem to cease.

My querulous yern for a change is blocked out,

And the sirens in my head all go off.

A vapid and monotonous sound ringing,

In few cases does it stop, a split seconds here and there.

Only long enough to remind me of what silence really is.

I dance in the night held by the glorious embrace of the

man in the moon

Ne'er a thought es me by of the disastrous events to

take place,

when the sun takes its turn.

I truly like being alone

But the empty feeling of being lonely is to much to bare.

So i rest my head on the pillow

Surrounded by the few that urge me away

Begging for me to surrender my hand.

Until the moment i turn over my being

They wait tirelessly never blinking.
