Analysis of Waiting
Perhaps there is
Any letter
Any message
Or you may yourself
Come
Every day,
I open the door
Having many hopes
If, saw nothing
With heavy steps
I go back to the room
And sit on the chair
Closing my eyes
Thinking you
Wait for another day
Then to new hope
I do not know
Since when
I am living
Or dying.
