A new chapter begins

Change.

That one simple word implies so much and carries so much weight. 

Everyone tells us we shouldn't change that we should stay the same.  

That's not how you play this game,

everyone needs to change in order to learn, to grow. 

Change isn't a bad thing, but we as a whole are scared of things we don't know. 


This is a beginning, a new chapter awaits. 

I'm no longer going to listen to others or be afraid of the fates.

Everyone has to grow up sometime,

I guess this is the point where I need to climb.

Instead of worrying about what may or may not happen, 

I'll make it through this life, smiling and laughing.  


Dodging the glares that stopped me before,

I'm not going to sit down anymore like I'm shaken to my core. 

No more taking the hits and punches, 

they won't keep me in their clutches. 


This is my story, my voice will be heard. 

No longer will the lines be blurred. 

It's time for a new chapter, 

a chapter where I am no longer a captor. 

Let us leave behind these dark days,

and finally, step into the warm suns rays.
