Another year has come to pass.

Finally, no longer peering through the looking glass.

Time to release the pain of the past.

Time to break free from the body cast.

A year of trouble, pain, and strife.

Has been replaced with hope of a new life.

There were countless times I wanted to just run away.

Things were bad but I would never go astray.

Now, a new year has begun.

I see a new light of the rising sun.

I am beginning seeing great changes already.

Determination that is standing strong and steady.

Something is different inside me.

I am beginning to believe in things I could not see.

Everyone makes a New Years resolution.

It never occurred to me I held the solution.

I dedicated this New Year the ones I love.

All the while never forgetting the ones I love above.

This is a year for a major change.

A perfect chance to our old life and rearrange.

This we must understand is a time for believing.

And letting go of all that is deceiving.
