ALONE

Reflecting:  You will learn so much if you look forward to your future instead of looking backwards to what might have been.  Envision what you always wanted to do and go after it.


MY YEARS ALONE

I have grown in my years alone,
I needed much help, I had to be shown.

I learned to work my way through,
All of my hatred I had for you.

I savored my strength as I regrouped,
I marched onward with my many troops.

I have found I am not really alone,

I have many strengths that I have to hone.

When you are happy and bright you have a glow,
Life seems easier, it just seems to flow.

I could not let you destroy me from within,

In the end I knew I would win.

Even though I had to be shown,
I have really grown in my years alone.
