relief

Relief washes over me.
The elephant standing on my chest is gone.

There is nothing left to do except wait.
I have no control anymore.
It all rests on your shoulders.

You are carrying the hopes of two people.
Try not to get weighed down by the enormity that stands before you.

You must be strong as you travel on this journey.

Because, I am strong for you while I am waiting.

  2. B,
    That is an awesome poem! Much better than the song, "I'm Leaving On A Jet Plane"
