A chance to begin again,
To analyze and contemplate,
The days gone by,
And those yet to come.
 
To dust the dirt off,
To wash the sweaty face,
To change the stained sweater,
And buy new shoes.

To envision a new chapter,
To draw strength from within,
To cut off the unnecessary,
And hold close the wonderful.
 
To remember the beautiful songs,
Sing loudly and laugh louder,
Like a hyena or a howling wolf,
And not feel any shame.
 
To forgive myself,
To stand my ground,
To find balance like the sun,
Making its arrival at the equator.
