Trying hard to sell our house....

If only it were that easy.....

All this waiting for some news
Anticipating will they choose
our house or theirs.
Can we wait? 
So frustrating. This we hate.
Not in our hands, they'll decide.
Can we have keys?
Nothing to hide.
But do they like it?
Do they not?
Fingers crossed, it's all we've got.
What's the options?
Money's tight.
End of tunnel, where's the light?
No more credit on the cards.
Not complaining but times are hard.
It's all our doing. No-one else.
Body's aching. Bad for health.
Throat is burning chest is tight
Losing our home can't be right !
So hard -working all our lives.
Made an error, cuts like knives.
No more money - no defences.
Struggle with the consequences.
All this waiting for some news
From the buyers will they choose
our house or theirs.
Can we wait? 
So frustrating. This we hate.
Not in our hands, they'll decide.
Can we have keys?
Nothing to hide.
But do they like it?
Do they not?
Fingers crossed, it's all we've got.
What's the options?
Money's tight.
End of tunnel, where's the light?
No more credit on the cards.
Not complaining. Times are hard.
It's all our debt. No-one else.
Body's aching. Bad for health.
Throat is burning, chest is tight.
Selling our home that's not right.
So hard -working all our lives.
Lost our business, cuts like knives.
No more money - no defences.
Struggle with the consequences.
Bank is coming if we don't
Pay the bills, not that we won't
just that we can't.
We both feel queasy.
Just sell the house? 
It's not that easy !
