Serving Time Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Taking life a step at a time, performing daily
tasks and duties absently, passing time quietly
with resignation and divine intervention keeping
me alive.

Serving time in this earthly life, wondering how
long it's going to continue, keeping time with
it's secret yearnings and desires, yet never being
able to be fulfilled.

An endless emptiness never being taken away or
filled with love, needlessly praying for something
more that will never pass my way.
