New Flowers
Another year down this road
In many ways I’ve grown
Spontaneity, once my greatest fear
A trip into the unknownI’ll stop seeing my body as a prison
A cage that I can’t escape
For this “prison” has fought many fights
And is still fighting until this dayI’ll view the world with a little less fear
And give open doors a chance
Tomorrow isn’t promised
So I’ll make every moment lastI’ll tend to my own garden
Watering the field in which I lay
No more searching for greener pastures
Just staying in my laneThe spring will bring new flowers
The weeds may still arise
I’ll nip all problems in the bud
I’ll no longer keep them insideI’ll be a better person
I’ll learn from my mistakes
I’m not as lost as I once was
Maybe this year I will find my wayVoting is closed
