Tears Of Waiting Poem by Barry Middleton
Tears Of Waiting
when the tears are exhausted
when the fire of anger is extinguished
I am left with the dull ache of waiting
my hope died with the tears
peace died with my prayers
the gods do not hear or do not care
my eyes are empty beyond despair
what is the word for utter hopelessness
what is the metaphor
I wait for the final passion
I welcome the terminal pain of death
bereft of mercy there is only sleep
