Where to?
Do I have what it takes?
The courage
2 yrs of enduring
Now I see clearly
The way forward and home
Waiting at the station
A ticket to ride
No destination
No past
No Identity
Only the promise and future of a new life at last
The clothes on my back
The wind in my hair
The sunglasses to hide the shiner of the year
The last straw has been broken
A life that was
Is no more
The day has arrived
New Horizons have dawned
I take my seat
The open road sings
An eagle swoops low
A sign that everything new begins again.
Today I feel excited, or is it fear?
I can't tell
They are, after all, the same thing.
It's just the filter you run them through that zings
From this moment forward, my filter is cleaned
It's set to excitement, joy, happiness
Let my new life begin
My new horizons will be gentle and warm
