Claudia Mccracken Poet Free verse

At Last

Throughout the day
I whisper a broken prayer
In the silence of the night
I ceaselessly utter my only desire
Is it over yet?
How long must I wait?
I need an unseen disaster to take me away 
I am not afraid of the pain
Only of facing another day
So I wait and wait
Yet in the morning I wake
To fight against this feeling 
This world is more than I can take
How can I be that brave?

Aa Harvey February 25, 2016 at 7:58 AM I like it. I have these feelings too sometimes. Claudia Mccracken February 25, 2016 at 8:06 AM Thank you. I've often wondered if other people felt this way.

Brian Davey February 24, 2016 at 5:22 AM Quite the one o ponder as I do with you but don't be frightened by it, embrace it and try and conquer it. Claudia Mccracken February 24, 2016 at 7:03 AM :)
