Today is my day for a brand new year br A look ahead to my new frontier br Everything appears to be uncertain br Like last year when I was hurt'in br br My arms embrace the future ahead br Eyes not shut, but open instead br Excited like a kid on Christmas day br Waiting to unwrap the brand new day br br Another year older another year passed br br The lines on my face in all it's glory br Tells of my life's story br Lines from laughter, lines from tears br Lines from this past year br br Another year older and what have I learned? br br The true meaning of unconditional love br The human spirit that is so strong br Rebuilding, and rising above br Learning from the past, that I'm sure of br br The path ahead is not straight or narrow br But I will lead my life br With the promise of tomorrowbr br Pookey's Poemsbr br
