A New Horizon

Sometimes the place you want to be,
Isn’t where you’re supposed to be.
Just because you may mess up,
That doesn’t mean you’re a screwup.

Mistakes happen, and accidents occur,
Nothing in life will ever change that.
Don’t allow your errors in life,
Limit the progress you make in life.

Just because the sun sets on earth, 
It doesn’t have to set in your heart.
Don’t be limited by the world’s view.
Let your imagination change your view.

However, the opportunity arrives,
Find a way and place to thrive.
The sun shines above the horizon,
There is a new day on the horizon.
