Happy New Year 1-1-15

Another year just like the last
Can't keep revolving in the past
Things must change, they must evolve
And I must move before I drown
Drenched in tears of past regrets
Trying so hard to forget... but not forget
How folly leads to discontent
But brings the soul to recompense

Forgive me of this wasted time
Let tick away this youth of mine
Make me strong and make me right
Tried and worthy of this life
Fulfill this purpose... mine alone
And your loving arms will call me home
