Change

 I’m sitting here in my mind 

Feeling change from yesterday 

I no longer feel that bind 

Where I can’t say what I want to say 

The past has been haunting 

Like the old house on the hill 

It’s been almost daunting 

But I still have that will 

I’m getting through it slowly 

But surely I might add 

This path is better for me 

I don’t want to be sad 

I’ve met people along the way 

Some have come and gone 

But those who have stayed 

Are those who share this bond 

And so I share with you this 

The story of my life 

If left the abyss 

And I’m glad to be alive
