My Rebirth

2017 is my rebirth 
I will rise from the ground 
I will celebrate life on the mountain top, dancing in a festival of hope 
I will open my wings and fly like a great eagle in the sky 
I will not let my yesterday defined my today…yesterday is over 
My life is a celebration of hope, a carnival of contentment  
Nothing will keep me down 
I will rise 
I see where I’m coming from and I will not return 
I will stand with the arrows in my back and feel no pain
My enemies will not defeat me, they will see my cheerfulness   
I am stronger now, my struggles were my teacher 
I learned the lessons of life 
I am standing tall rising above my yesterday 
I will rise ...this is my rebirth
