New Beginnings/New Paths

This has come to a close and I finally feel free
Hope this isn’t as tough as it was once for me
I packed up all my clothes, gathered my souvenirs
I have stopped feeling lost, found my way far from here

I walk nervous and slow towards new, shinny paths
Wish for peace to my soul, wish I won’t break your heart
I kn0w they’re empty hopes but it settles my mind
I have to up and run so I can sleep at night

I can’t keep dwelling here in the house of my enemy
I can admit, indeed, that I had good experiences
But I surely don’t think this is where lies my destiny
When the wrong runs so deep, it leaves me rid of everything

This new road is uncertain; it leaves me cold and breathless
But for a life so standard, this once I can’t be selfless
For me this is unheard of, to give up and surrender
But if I don’t respect that, I will never get better

This one chapter is closing, many more are just starting
This is the life I’ve chosen and I couldn’t be prouder
I will fight for the glory that my people are lacking
I intend for this story to shine bright before dying

Written a couple weeks ago for a new step I took. I was uncertain at the time. Today, I know I made the right call.
