Literally surrendering to the emotional anguish.
Her kitten jumps up to drink from the water,
and she doesn't even bother to push her away.
There's nothing like hearing that boys voice on the reciever,
and she cringes from the chills and her fever.
Her headache persists from the ticking of the clock,
one heavy repetitive stroke after another.
It's only afternoon and she's already waiting for the afternoon,
It'll be the promise of glory in the form of a sunrise.
