HORIZON

I struggled last year, last month, yesterday; but all of that is passed away.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW DAY!

I tried and failed too many times; I fell and rose, but fell again.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW BEGINNING!

I wasted talents, time, and gifts, not purposely, but effectively.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW GIFT!

I loved, but lost and cried in pain, and swore I’d never trust again.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW PROMISE!

I gave up hoping things would change; just walked away and vowed to never try again.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW HOPE!

I chased my dreams but never seemed to catch them. And still they stretched for miles too far away.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW DREAM!

I squandered opportunities that came along my way. I feared and let them slip on by unclaimed.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW CHANCE!

Last year’s future stared me in the eye and challenged me to be all I could be. I didn’t try.
The sun breaks on the horizon: I have A NEW FUTURE!
