A loneliness creeps in <br />Crowding my thoughts <br />Even busyness can't erase <br />Longing for too many things <br />Unfulfilled looking to the next <br /> Activity to bring it closer <br />Than yesterday <br />Peering into the future <br /> Does no good to alleviate <br />The anxiety <br />So I'll just move forward <br />Through time expecting <br />Change and wait quietly <br />To die.<br /><br />Rick Elpers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-my-way-to-work-2/
