A new life,
Starts with a new beginning.
I have been given My new beginning.
even in the oddest of situations...
even in the confusion on life....
I can find my way out of the dark, and into the light.
Milestone at a time,
God brought me home.
Through Baptism of Water.
Through the love given through Jesus Christ.
Every year,
I learned.
Every year,
I grew.
Every year you,
you'll,
you guys,
you two,
you few,
you,
even you guys,
even you that I don't remember...
Where with me some steps of the way.
Through lessons not only taught from you'll,
but lessons I learned for Myself.
Lesson taught by God,
Lessons earned through Jesus Christ.
I finally came out ready to fight the good fight.
No More running,
No more hiding.
I'm here to stand My ground.
I'm here to live life sound.
I'm here to go as far as I am meant.
Every piece has begun to fit together.
Every obstacle, being in plain few.
Every strategy known,
and being used.
Strength given,
Strength earned.
A child like life,
With knowledge of a sound mind.
No fear allowed,
No branch added.
All lessons being used,
To restore balance.
My pain,
Is my strength.
Reminding me to stay far from the sting of the grave.
Through stripes bore,
A life given to me.
A stairwell up,
Leading to a door.
Which one day Will be my home,
Where I will roam.
Until now,
I will allow earth to be my temporary home.
All is well if in moderation.
I do take Pride in how far I have come.
It's deserved after all I have won.
I can't be expected,
to deny my satisfaction,
Not will I deny My ability to drive.
Further I can go,
Further it is I seek.
This place I am at currently,
Is not My destiny.
A road to it yes,
But fulfilling it, no.
I will go day by day,
Neither fast,
nor slow.
I'm prepared now,
I'm ready to go.
