The Woman Who Waits
The woman waits
As she picks up her knife
The woman waits
As she contemplates her life
The woman waits
She checks it again
The woman waits
Nothing happens, then
The woman waits
No one has messaged her
The woman waits
She just wants to make sure
The woman waits
As her phone starts to buzz
The woman smiles
When they called her just 'cause.
