"To Begin Again"

Another day done...

Moments made...

Hours counted...

The fall of the setting sun

Eyes watch the horizon with colours reaching out

As if coming from beyond the end of the world

Thoughts and reflections of lessons learned

The things we now know...

And the questions longing for answers...

Sometimes there is still light...

Where you think there is only shadow...

Maybe the destination we reach is a place where we must begin again

Because just as you think of giving up and surrendering...

And you choose to stand up and start to fight

That is surviving...

It's the choice made

The breath of freedom gained

Beyond the bitter sting of tears

Forgiveness is everything given or nothing taken

To release a person from the feelings of anger

Life brings out the truest of colours

Words and actions

And when its hard for some one to speak...

Its up to us to do our best to listen

Take notice...

With honour and loyalty

The brave and grateful

Those who stick by and stand with you when others abandon

They have given you space to grow

Its awareness appreciated

Love that which seems unlovable

And only judge when you find yourself the definition of perfect

This day is done

Rest your weary head

Tomorrow is another

All for you...

Living...

And to begin again.
