Knife's Edge

At this time my life is uncertain
I grasp and straws, making plans
Any small ounce of certainty I gain
Turns to smoke and slips through my hands

I don't know who I can turn to
Who can I trust during this hour?
Who will help me in this moment
When I feel I have lost all my power?

Will anyone catch me?
Will anyone break my fall?
Even though I'm offered so much reassurance
Will anyone be there at all?
I wrote this because this is where I am right now. I keep hoping and planning but nothing is set in stone yet. I have no certainty things will turn out like I hope. I try to ignore that fact for a while to gain some peace of mind during this time.

I like it and I have been there before, especially the being surrounded by people but still feeling completely and utterly alone.
