New Beginning

by flutterflies   Oct 18, 2008


"I will not be defeated,"
I look at myself and say,
As my scars begin to fade
And I wake up to a brand new day,
It's my turn for a second chance,
It's my time to start again,
It's time to open my eyes,
Time to start fighting this,
Time to start to try.
No more searching because
Now I've found myself,
Once lost in a haze,
Travelling in circles;
Trapped in a never-ending maze,
But I understand now,
And it's all coming clear;
Who I am and where I want to go,
(Things I should have known)
I now, finally know.
My life is my own,
And it's time to take control;
I am going to break free,
It's time for me to be
Who I was always meant to be.
My fate is in my hands;
I will take my second chance;
My second innings,
This one I wont mess up;

A new beginning.

    A good write, and my only suggestion for u to make it any better like u asked for is to copy and past it to a word document, then try the thesourus (uhh cant spell sorry lol) for some of the more "bland" words. think about it like a meal. how can u spice it up? i think this work would go from high school project to profound expression of self with just a few replacements of some "bigger", more complex wording. 5/5 tho!
