New Start
I see the silver lining,
The sunlight through the storm.
The things that once went
Spiralling out of control
Are in my posession,
Lost no more.
Searching and fighting
Turned to seeing and believing.
My hope and faith restored
A future uncertain but promising.
Laugh through the pain,
The hurt goes away.
Rise above the flame,
It does not burn, the sky
No longer grey.
The past turns to ash,
Dirt,
Forgotten.
It makes way for the bright,
New day.
Let the rain cleanse the soul
And the sun warm your heart.
The future may be uncertain,
But today is a fresh,
New start.
