What Now?

What Now? Well I've given up the smokes finally,and I don't see the point in a drink or a flutter, My love lifes nothing to brag about,and I'm getting rid of all the clutter What Now? I've eating good food,and exercising too Still trying to keep on top of things,I know I have to do, I've been praying and meditating,and scrubbing walls and ceilings It does'nt seem to help me deal,with all these thoughts and feelings. What Now? I know the car needs washing,and the needs to be mowed There's dirty clothes,and holey socks,that's needing to be sewed. What Now? Maybe I'll just go on strike,or do a little more Or maybe I'll just relax a while,of that, I'm pretty sure. I know that someone may call me,of that I can be certain But I'm hoping ,that they'll go away,I guess I'll just close the curtain. Maybe now I'll have a bite to eat,or I guess I could just fast But really I'm putting on too much weight,I was anerexic,in my past. What Now? This is life and reality,it's such a lovely thing A woman's lot in life I guess,enough to make you sing. By Sharon.L.Leonard.26th,July,2007.
