Once upon a time

I held on to my past

Now, I let the pain, and the bad go

And keep the lessons and the good with me

In the present.

It does not serve me or others

Nor does it have place in my future

Yet, I reorganize my thoughts

My emotions

My goals

Vigorously refocusing  on

My dreams and my heart

And that has become, my haven

Chaos and a confused world

May try to make me doubt

But the truth remains

I am alive!

I have worth!

Beauty still exists in the world

And hope still thrives

It gives one much to be thankful for

Now I begin a new chapter

Blank, for now though it may be

Soon adventures

And discoveries

New beginnings

Like an old Sage’s story

Will fill its pages

But what story will it tell?

Will you, my love?

Find me this year
