So Whaddya Do?

When the world is closing in on you
and you think the outside of you must mirror
the inside of you and all is black on black.

When you feel like people are looking at you
with a combination of pity and wonder and
thankfullness your life does not belong to them.

When you wonder if there really is a silver lining
behind the cloud that seems to have taken up
permanent residence over your head.

When your friends avoid you or simply give a quick
hello and turn away so you cannot make eye contact
and they may "catch" what you have.

I shall dance.  I shall sing.  I shall continue to look
Up above the clouds and know that my strength
will continue and never fail.

I shall take a deep breath, whisper a prayer and
silently wait for the answer whether it is "yes",
"no"... or "wait".

I shall know my true friends are standing beside
me whether physically or spiritually or sometimes
by the click of a button on the computer.

Life hands us lemons and I choose to squeeze the
last drop, crush the peels and let the soft
squishy insides slide between my fingers.

Then...I feel better.
After all, tomorrow is another day.
