    Waiting Odessa

    A widow waits for death
    but it delays once again
    and again
    and again
    Like a random basking friend
    She has an empty bag of patience
    but keeps it filled with all kinds of pills
    to battle the pangs of life
    As it stubborly hangs around
    hanging heavily off her useless body
    Such as unbeatable factory of fluids
    And she waits bitterly
    and again
    and again
    Another day comes
    For life is the haunting ghost
    And death is the far fetched dream
