Me...

Thu, 02/27/2014 - 13:18 -- Kine'J

I closed my eyes...
And all my pain and sorrow went dark...
All the burdens of last year seem to lift
And a new me began to spark.
I'm going to try this year...
I'm going to be brave...
Although my resolutions never work
This year I won't cave.
The pressure gets real...
My stress has got a bone...
My worries got a name...
My progress is unknown. 
But, I am determined...
I am focused...
I won't stray from responsibilities. ..
2014, my faults are noticed.
I will speak the truth...
I will speak from my soul...
I won't be mute to the world...
Because a new me will unfold. 
I have a lot to offer...
Nothing is holding me back this year
I don't need to suffer...
I have all the right gear.
You see, I relied on others...
To pull me through...
Until I looked in the mirror...
And looking back was a fighter named U
So as I sit here in the dark...
The old me begins to fade...
And when I opened my eyes...
A new me was made.
