A Chance For Atonement
Spring, starting anew
forgiveness for all you do
comes atonement too
Atonement means change
it is time to rearrange
first things must come first
Addictions must go
responsibilities stay
and your life goes on
If addictions stay
responsibilities grow
and your life shatters
A life that shatters
with parts glued, cannot be whole
like mirror cracked
Never again whole
for pieces always missing
never found again
Hope atonement comes
responsibility stays
go, addictions, go
False escape fleeting
in morning, problems remain
still have to face pain
True escape takes guts
face to sun, back to others
close door behind you
Never turn around
always face to sun always
one day at a time
One step at a time
out from the abyss you climb
left foot then right foot
Easy, who say so?
but can be done, this I know
face to sun, always
Spring, starting anew
