The New Year

The new year draws closer
I wish to hold composure
Filled with hopes and woes
All of this may expose
I'm frightened I won't achieve
But I must unfailingly believe
To have hope beyond hope
I can surrender the rope
Unlock these chains that bind
Release the grip on my mind
Start the year with less fears
Find solace in my tears
Do not cower from the unknown
Any mistakes I will atone
Seek courage in my heart
Fall in love with more art
Carry on with my life
I will lay down this knife
Let the new year always come
I will no longer stay numb
