Allow yourself to begin anew
Allow yourself to begin anew,
Shake off that outdated point of view,
And pluck out those bits that brought to you, only sorrow.
Sweep away those old ideas, like dust,
Clean those dreams that have started to rust.
Open up some space to welcome a new tomorrow.
Let yourself go at a slower pace,
Remembering life is not a race,
That tomorrow will find its own way to where you are.
Pause now and then, reflect for a while,
Remembering what once made you smile,
Find a place where with your memories, you can see far.
What tomorrow brings, you may not know,
But with yesterday, just let it go,
Watch it walk away with the weight of yesterday’s load.
Allow yourself to begin anew,
Prepare yourself for a new life view,
With a light heart, start walking along tomorrow’s road.
