It’s never too late to start over.

Feeling down and lonely
I revealed myself to you
Not sure what to expect
A chance for something new
You made me feel less shameful
For what once seemed forsaken
I crawled out of the cracks
And let myself be taken
Thank you for your treasure search
And for dusting off the gem
You took a broken spirit
And made my life less grim
And now I owe you plenty
A life of happy endings
Because when you found me
You brought a new beginning

    You’re right, it’s never to late. As scary as starting over could be, it’s one of the most exciting feelings you can experience. Your poetry is so simple yet so in depth. Anyone and everyone can relate, and that’s the beauty.

    The read of this or rather the flow is perfect as the rhyme is dead on. The subject is clear as you give thanks to another for lifting you, your spirits, providing a new beginning. Very well written. Michael
