A New Story

Sometimes it feels like that loop is never going to end,

And that you keep living the same day over and over again. 

As hard as you try to break those habits, it never seems to stop,

And you start to wonder if you will ever see the day where you end up on top.

You try so hard to let go of the past,

Because you know deep down this pain will not always last.

But every once in a while, those terrors come back into your mind,

And you wonder if peace is something you will ever be able to find.

Even when it is hard to believe it, you have to remind yourself that you have the power,

To continue to grow because you are the one watering the flower.

Even when it seems like nothing is going to change,

Because reminding yourself of how far you have come is something that feels new and strange.

At the end of the day, you are the one who can write this new story,

And you are the one who is going to lead you to your own glory.

You have been reading the same chapter long enough,

And you know that letting go of your past is something that is going to be tough.

It is up to you to create the future that you want,

So you don’t look back on your life and have those dreams and ideas come back to haunt.

As hard as it may be, you need to keep going even when no one else believes in you,

Because you know what it is that you want, and you know what it is that you have to do.

And remember that when someone knocks you down, it is because you have something that they 

do not,

And you have the type of passion and desire that can only be desired, and can never be bought.

Remember to keep going, even when things get hard,

Because you can’t give up when you are at the tenth yard.
