Positive [Resigned]

Positive.

How can I be positive? 

Look at the destruction and desolation that plagues this place...

Peace is no longer; hope has fled, there is almost nothing left!

Positive.

How can I be positive? 

Feel the life drain from me and seep into the floor boards...

Joy is a stranger; happiness a story of old, can this really be a life?

Positive.

How can I be positive?

Touched by no other, faithful from the start, that is me...

Trust has dissolved, faithfulness is a myth, how could he bring death to the pot?

Positive.

How can I be positive?

Commitment failed, vows broken, lies told consistently...

Health is gone, vitality is no longer; how will I look after my children?

Positive.

HIV Positive, yes that is me.

Sickness will come, death is inevitable but there is one hope to hold.

Drugs and good food and care mean life will be preserved.

I will cope, I will find strength to be mother and daughter, sister and friend.

Yes I am positive;

That being HIV positive;

Does not have to be the end of me...

Inspire

Inspiration...where does it come from?

A place deep within a person...

A specific event in one's soul...

Its from a whispered word encouraging...

A light bulb that sparks the mind...

Images that take your breath away...

Words that strike a chord...ignite...

Love that is given without condition...
