A New Year

A new year For an old life A new beginning Full of restarts A new chance To make things right To fix mistakes To change your life Don’t miss the chance To make amends To say you’re sorry To fill the gaps This doesn’t mean You should accept Any mistreats Or fake friends Your happiness Takes precedence Over anything Never forget To value your feelings Take care of your heart Look up to yourself And hold your head high *** January 01st, 2017

Some lovely stanzas, Claudia! I love a good poem delivered with brevity, it is a rewarding challenge, and in this case I was rewarded by your challenge. A joy to read ... CayCay

We always get a new chance. Never let your feelings of self-worth depend on someone else. Love you, Clau <3

Yes, we do! Is hard to not let other's opinions about us to matter, specially when they reinforce the flaws we see in ourselves... but we'll get there... Love you my sweet friend <3
