she quietly sits on the bench
focusing on one question
a question she has recently
often asked herself but not been able
to find a workable answer for
how do I begin again at this stage of my life?
this question has been haunting her
and kept her awake during the night
and lost and depressed during the day
she has tried to push it away
but it creeps up again and again
watching her I realise
that her question
is also my question
and just like her
I am still searching
for a workable answer
