"Tired, sore, burning red eyes stare.
Glistening tears fall onto the carpet.
One after another dropping swiftly."

This stanza described to me what the person was feeling completely. Nice job, though I would suggest shortening the first sentence. It seems a bit clumped.

"Glances shared between loved ones,
as the doctor passes the windows.
Each step taking endless hours."

I particularly like the last part of this stanza. When we are waiting for news, it seems as if the clock is just ticking by slowly. Great job describing this :)

"Nails beat like drums against the chair.
Gulping swallows sound like earthquakes.
Lips quiver with every prayed hope."

Again, when we are waiting for something, especially in the silence, every small noise seems so loud. I loved this.

"In the doorway he stands; sighing.
Good news is shared as sobs are heard.
Wet salt falls upon my lips in joy."

This was the perfect ending to this poem. Overall a great job. 5/5
