Than the thing itself:

  'Tis not the death, but the dying.

In a catatonic state
Thanks only to your touch
I’m freezing with anticipation
Hoping to never move again

To live for living's sake
And not in feverish anticipation
Of one's death

  Prom night finally is here

  Nervous anticipation
Attempting to be grown up

The relaxation,
 of the anticipation.
To calm you down,
 now, don't frown.
I'll give you this,
 even if it's just a kiss.

Anticipation
Stockings hung on the mantle
Christmas tree in lights
Children nestled in their beds
Santa arrives, Ho, Ho, Ho
