A time to rejoice,soft and warm
Looking at an entire year gone
I have stopped myself from getting lost
In a swirling mist of trecherous thoughts
Some nights dark, my sheets all cold
Feeble attempts on a life to hold
Some tears and smiles, a beating heart
Clinging to hope, when clouds depart
I breath in deep, the promise in air
Of times ahead when I can stare
And my heart can tell me to go ahead
Touch my face, my tears unshed
A slip of time makes and breaks
A show of strength or a toss of fate
A minute of courage is easy to find
Stretch it longer, it's lost in time
