New Year, Old Wishes

Tis a new year, yet my old wishes prevail I wish for peace on earth and peace for me the heaviness in my heart still makes me wail My situation is the same, as far as I see Can the new year provide what my heart desires? for my son to get the help he needs so desperately? for my family to overcome our crossed wires? Will God work a miracle in my family! I do believe in miracles and hope keeps me moving I breathe in and breathe out and take steps each day the fact that I do this is proving that prayers are being answered for a way To live with uncertainty and ugliness in the form of me living life while stuck on a treadmill of pain that is life where addiction is the norm and I pray that hope will never wane
