A New Day

 

My sea weary spirit is torn

Tossed in the force of the storm

Anger simmers around my heart

While hunger rumbles within

I'm a caged heart afraid of trying

Locked in my own cell

I know that I must break out

Out of this hurting hell

I know it's time to leave my heart

To the fate of fortunes hands

I need to find my own haven

Upon so milk white sand

And so in paradise

I am alive and free

No more being scared and afraid

I am cutting my losses and tragedies

I am living for today.

A New Year Awaits

 

This is a new year

It's gonna be great

Life is a party

One big fete

This is the year

For dreams to come true

To get ambitious

To see it through

A time to aspire

To new heights

To overcome fears

Taste new delights

To enjoy ourselves

Make the most of our life

Make loads of new fiends

To put all wrongs right.

A New Year

 

A new year

A new beginning

A chance to do the right thing

To start that exercising

Determined to be trim

Give up on the smoking

Slapping on a patch

Do some more for charity

That's a solemn fact

The first two I have failed on

I am such a wimp

It is just pure laziness

That is what I think

On the charity side

I think I've done quite well

There's tons I've done for children

As well as adults as well.
