Tense rocking
Shifting from
Clock to door
Door to clock
Awake dreaming
Nightmares
With eyes wide open
Door clicks creaks
Shrieking
Terrified joy
Tears of relief
Tense body
Collapses
Into strong arms
Shaking with loss
Of fear

© Jennifer H., Bethesda, MD

The author's comments:
the fear of a loved one not returning after hearing of a life threatening incident and not knowing whether they're hurt or even still alive
