New Day

With the light of dawn
comes a new day
I must have faith
in what comes my way
I know in the pain
there are lessons to learn
These hurtful times
I must not spurn
In this time
when things are bad
If I look hard
miracles are
to be had
Even though
my pain is great
This hurt filled life
I will not berate
I pray to accept
what I can not change
It's my life
I must rearrange
To grow
I will go
to any length
My Higher Power
will give me strength
Sometime I'm tired
I feel weak
can't even find
the words to speak
Nothing makes sense
nothing seems real
except the hurt
the pain
that I feel
I believe
"in one day at a time"
with my Higher Power
life will be sublime
