The Waiting Room

by Rona   Jan 9, 2007


Sitting here quietly
I look around,
Lost faces I see,
Feet tightly on the ground.

Quiet coughs faintly heard,
Flipping pages echoes in the air.
Soft whispers bounce off walls,
No one speaks, no one dares.

Tension enters the room,
Impatience takes over.
The feeling of dread,
Fills the sober.

Clock ticking loudly,
Old music playing
Door opens and closes,
No one seems to be staying.

Waiting for the call,
Slowly growing more restless.
Waiting in this seat,
Feeling more helpless.

Here I am,
In The Waiting Room
Sitting impatiently,
While the room drowns in gloom.

    Good imagery. I hate the waiting room. We should bill doctors for our time spent in them! Nice job on the poem.
