Inspired by the song with the same name by Creed, this is one poem that has different meanings.
standing before the one and only,
i stand with arms wide open
waiting to receive the judgement
that is going to be delivered
my life is about to change
and i close my eyes
hoping the time that i have to live
is given a much needed boost!
with bated breath
i wait, unsure of
what the powers to be
are thinking!
after days of struggle
to reach a consensus,
it has come to this,
time to take the decision is now!
as i take a breath
i wait to know my fate
i wait to know if my
appeal to live life
has been granted
or denied!
i wait
with arms wide open
ready to receive the judgement
that is going to be handed out to me!

Don’t seal your fate with this. And be prepared for the worst as well. Cos life isnt about all this alone. 🙂
Hope you take this in the right sense.
Ofcourse, this is not the end and as you said life isnt about all this alone 🙂
I am prepared for the best and the worst 🙂
I am just waiting for the judgement, thats all.
I just found this website….love your poems. Almost every poem that touched me i found was written by you. Beautiful, touching, and inspiring. Keep writing please. 😀
What a great little poem to start the day. Very well constructed with flickers of vivid imagery.
i wait
with arms wide open
ready to receive the judgement
that is going to be handed out to me!
Love the ending.
