The shock of seeing two lines,
always followed by the eagerness to take a second test
to stay positive thinking it might be a false negative...
After 16 double lines, only one was single.
YAY for the efficiency of tests
and the evolution of science.
How to stay positive when all is negative,
your life will be destroyed from now on,
should you hide it?
no, you can't... too many people are involved
and will suffer the consequences,
but they might suffer even more if you share the news.
Meanwhile your mind is going down a rabbit hole
more and more messages showing support invade your world,
the missing phone calls number keeps adding,
the unread messages accumulate like sand after a sand storm.
This result is rain over flooded land,
you were already sick and in pain,
barely managing, and now more.
Why you? you have been the champion for being careful,
telling everybody to use protection,
not only to stay safe from the common viruses
but for ALL the other diseases and problems you can get.
You were careful, always... well not always...
regrets for one night.
Now the ripple effect has started and you can't stop it,
so many people want to help in their own way,
even after you clearly communicated how they can help you.
Presents and roses arrive every day, more kind words, more I am here for you...
Your best friend asking you how are you gonna make this the best day so far?
