Start From Scratch

Start from scratch 
By Michelle Morris

When you've spiralled down
And lost your way;
And it feels like your demons 
Are here to stay...

Take a breath, 
Try to stay calm;
You've hit rock bottom;
It's a new platform...

To build a new life,
Start from scratch;
Have faith in the plan,
That heaven has hatched...

To guide you and mould you,
Perfect and blessed;
You will be fine - soon;
You just have to pass the test...

For life puts us through
So many paces, 
But we aren't ever given
More than we can face.

So true, Michelle. We are only given what we can handle, however difficult it may seem. Blessings, Gershon
