Ten Years, a Million Tears
Today, a time for inner reflection
Remembering the morning ten years ago
When life drastically changed direction
Without hope, how to cope, I did not know
I didn’t think I could find the way
To survive even one more day
Angry, bitter, depressed, full of fears
The first two years I shed a million tears
Very slowly though I began to heal
And a bit of hope started to reveal
Today my emotions are free-wheeling
Uncertain as to how I am feeling
The journey hasn’t been an easy one
There have been bumps along the way
But as this day of reflection is almost done
I know tomorrow holds the promise of a new day
