Happiest New Year Ever

Im here. 
I made it.
Longest row
Ever to hoe.
So proud.
Empowered.
Free.

Now wash 
My hands
Of it.
Scrub it all
Away.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : [email protected]
