SILVER LININGS
I opened windows,
saw silver linings,
the sky brightening.
I knocked on the door of the day.
In its new frame of mind
it didn’t turn me away;
it pulled up a chair
and asked me to stay.
I took control,
I walked tall.
I had faith
in what I was worth.
I have peace.
I am safe.
I am me.
I am happy.
