A Time For Change

Amidst the chaos of life's decisions,

Stands a soul, wrapped in indecision.

Countless nights spent in reflection,

Endless thoughts seeking redemption.


A heart that beats with guilt and pain,

Trembling with fear of what may remain.

A soul that aches to feel hope again,

But succumbs to the weight of past disdain.


The world outside paints a bright hue,

Yet darkness looms within; nothing new.

Perception becomes the enemy of the mind,

As positivity fades, leaving little to find.


For every mistake, a lesson awaits,

A chance to learn, a new slate.

Acceptance of one's own flaws,

Breaks free from self-criticism's jaws.


Embrace the present, leave the past,

With a positive approach, sail fast.

For happiness awaits those who try,

A new dawn, a fresh day, under the sky.

Today is the day for change
