A Few Days Too Long

I’ve sat here for a while

Waiting for that call

Did I get it?

Or did I not?

The call that seals my future

The call that decides my fate

Waiting for that call

A few days too long

When will they call?

How much longer shall I wait?

I’ll wait a little longer

Waiting for that call

They said that they would call me

They said that I should wait

A few days, just a few days

A few days too long

I put in my application

I did my audition piece

I hope I did well

I hope I got the spot

So now I’m just waiting

Waiting by the phone

Will they call to say I got it?

Or will they keep me waiting?

I’m waiting for the call

The call that seals my future

The call that decides my fate

Waiting for that call

A few days too long

This is a poem that I just wrote while in English class. I got the inspiration from a friend, she's waiting for a call from the university to see if she got in or not.
