Tomorrow dawns

Once so tired
Once so cold
Once so lonely
Now I dream
Of a better tomorrow
Ready to wake
To the new day shining
And a new light in life
A new start
To match the new day
So awake
So alert
Maybe just maybe
Things will be better
The tiredness draws once more
And the old ways set in
But knowing that darkness
And seeing no light
I stand taller
Refusing to fall
I am my own person
I have my own life
No more past
All that matters is now
And what is to come
No more nets
No more shoulders
No more leaning
Stand up
Take it all
Make it mine
Now or never
Time to go
Show them all
What I’m made of
To prove them wrong
To prove myself
No more sleeping
Tomorrow is here today
