New Year

New Year To face a new year from the depths of my soul Is like facing a fear And not letting it go A new beginning of being And of not being scared To fight through this battle And pretend that I cared A time to be positive And start life anew To push through the past Not stick in it like glue But the climb up this hill Is far too steep I’ve no energy left And my future looks bleak This mask- how it slips now I just want to hide I’m scared of myself There’s nothing left inside…

Wonderfully composed! There is hope by the way, even when your brain tells you there isn't.
