New

Quickly life changes, things that are said
Made all the difference to us,
A few words spoken of love, or hate,
Destroyed every ounce of trust.

My new beginnings where not to be
With the man that I thought loved me,
A phone call altered the paths of our lives,
Once again I am lonely, but free.

Now I take a different route,
Alone, but no more with fear,
I’ll change my life for the better,
I’ve shed my last bitter tear.

Now I decide what to do with my life
Possibilities stretch before,
See the world that I’ve never seen,
Set foot on a brand new shore.

Expand my mind, explore myself,
Discover what it is that I need,
I know once the heartache is over and done
My spirit will take the lead.

As I travel along my path,
Encounters unique to review,
I’ll hold my head high, a smile on my face,
Enjoy my beginnings anew.
