Unpredictable Tomorrow

by Luanne

I have been working on this piece for weeks now. The words just wouldn't fall the way I wanted to express them ... until today.



Unpredictable Tomorrow

Sadness, the world within our mind
twists and turns with flaming rage
fear, self-pity, blame and guilt
isolate - spirits in a cage

Fear will scratch the surface
guilt shall consume your soul
blame eventually follows
self pity devours you whole

Empty pages hold the future
unaware what tomorrow brings
yet to feel the beauty of the day
is what gives hope its wings

Drink life from a half-filled cup
swallow with dignity and pride
worth not measured by the exterior
but what lives and grows inside

Surrender to a glorious sunrise
and shadows that may fall between
for even within a droplet of rain
magic and miracles can be seen ...

"I am not dying of MS .... I'm living with it "
Live in Today ... Tomorrow is unpredictable


* When faced with a chronic illness it can shred your life to pieces. You will face every emotion known. Sadness, anger, rage, fear, guilt, blame and perhaps even self pity.
These emotions will isolate you from the rest of the world. They will zap your energy and steal your will to live.
Until .... you decide they will not control you. There is a beautiful world out there ... and even though it is so hard to see it when you have a chronic illness. You must look deep within and find the strength to fight *
