As I embark on another journey this year
may I be strong enough to make it through
May I have what it takes to be the best
and always know what to do
May I finally feel like I'm in my place
and know what I'm doing here
May I be so consumed in making things right
that there will be no time for tears
May the people who have always doubted me
finally see who I am
May the ones who once stood by my side
believe in me once again
May I finally fit in with the ones up top
and feel like I belong
For our future is quickly approaching us
and life moves swiftly along
May I feel less like a disappointment
and more like the person I should be
And when I reflect and look back on my life
may I be pleased with what I see
Finally, for now, one last thing
before this feeling ends
May everything I do, from now till then
help me to make amends
