Waiting all the while
And not even a fraction of as patiently as I pretend
Working until I could work no longer
Crying until I could cry no longer
Driving until I could drive no longer
Walking until I could walk no longer
Finally A moment's rest
I nervously glance at my shoes
Knowing sometime earlier I wore through the soles
Oh, great
I'm honestly too medicated to be awash in horror
I merely observe the blood
Because it appears I also wore through my feet
