A poem

I will find a way to thrive

in twenty twenty five.

The difficulties that buried me deep down,

didn’t know I would sprout in the depths of the ground.

I will bloom like never before

finding the right winds on which to soar.

I will look to the skies and take flight,

ascending over my adversaries.

I will find joy in every tiny moment I can,

deepening my laugh lines in memory,

carrying happiness in my own reflection.

Each day is a new day to try again,

and I will try harder than ever not to let the shadows swallow me.

I will find my place in the sun.
