have you experienced
anguish before?
i am sure you haven't.
not the kind of anguish
i'm talking about.
the kind which
rubs your nerve-ends raw,
gut-wrenching.
and every breath
a painful reminder.
while i wait
for a glimpse,
a whisper,
some clue.
anything that would help
me get through this day
and make it to the next.
with a dream to span
the night.

Anguish? Is that what work is doing to you? Lets make it two of us then..:)
Your poetry really speaks to me.Loved this one as well.Intense and manages to convey that depth of angst.
**gut-wrenching.
and every breath
a painful reminder.
This was really beautiful the way you've described it...so apt and so poignant
