Keep moving forward,
Keep working toward
The things in life that give you meaning,
Just ignore these intervening
Problems trying to hold you down,
In spite of them, keep gaining ground
Move on to a better day
Keep working on that better way
To make all of your dreams come true
‘Cause in the end it’s up to you
To keep going strong, keep working toward
That better life and keep moving forward.
– Shaman Romney
Drained, tired, exhausted,
My piece of mind accosted.
Shattered by the days events and more.
Weak, spent, and weary,
I find my outlook dreary
As piles of life grow too tall to ignore.
Humiliated and humbled,
Nervously I stumbled
Not knowing what next I had in store.
Now I stand and wait,
Trying desperately to abate
My heart from writing this stoccato score.
But then, a sudden conclusion
Comes much to my confusion.
My problems stay behind my bedroom door.
I’ll finally get some rest
Against the world’s behest.
A peaceful sleep is what I’m hoping for.
Maybe tomorrow will more kind.
Maybe i’ll be in less of a bind.
I wont know until I wake, that’s for sure.

When an old beginning ends,
A new beginning life portends.
With new experiences and brand new friends.
New colors match your personal blends.
When the new beginnings start,
The old ones do not fly apart.
They stay as beautiful pieces of art;
Locked away safely with your heart.
So when a beginning begins anew.
Remember all the things that you’ve been through.
Think of all the things that you’ll go on to do.
Of all life’s demons that you slew.
Hold those thoughts with you and smile.
You just made it through life’s trial.
The next one starts in a short while.
So when you live, live life in style.
