Where do we go from here

Where do we go from here?

Can this go on any longer?
I wonder why I should be worried
We have managed
Mostly. By chance.
But then again

Can this go on any longer?
I had the call today
they wish to come
and stay and spend time
With me. With us.
Fair enough.
But then again

Can this go on any longer?
There was a time
When I thought
we could
Ignore it
and did
But then again

It is time to rethink
To rearrange
our lives
to be more open
and more sincere.
Whatever it takes
to do it

Let not old excuses
Surface
They will not work
Like they did.
Think again.
How can we change
Our lives? To be
Caring
Loving and honest.

Trust Friends
And Family
To understand
and feel
And support
Not judge
Or deride.

How would They
See us
here
In this place
Not our own.
Living
like there is no
Tomorrow.
