What Do You Do
WHAT DO YOU DO
What do you do when you can't let go?
And yet you have to let go:
For the rope you are clinging onto is already lose!
What do you do When you don't know how you feel?
And you know no body knows how you feel:
For whoever you explain to doesn't understand!
What do you do when silence is the best speech you can offer?
And the world expects much from you:
For many have their eyes upto you!
What do you do if you can't stop cogitating?
And you are coaxed into perplexion:
For the solution is no difference from the problem,
The puzzle is too tight to solve!
What do you when the people around you are distant?
And you need someone to talk you through:
For a burden shared lightens the weight
But you've never know the voice of a friend!
What do you do When life turns it's back on you?
And yet you still want to see yourself through:
For lightning strikes you twice,
But you never seem to see the way out!
This is the moment you ask "God where are you?"
For you have lost yourself
You remember how at prayer you were
Forgetting that God never left,
It was you that turned around.
