New, Now
I think maybe
It’s way overdue
For me to start over.
Clean slate.
No more nonsense,
No more bullshit.
No more flashbacks
No more feeling inadequate–
I’m done with all of that now
I’m new.
I’m fresh.
I’m over it and I’m
Moving on through.
I don’t need anybody,
I’ve got myself
and that’s all I ever needed
I’m new, now
No baggage, no carry-ons
And no return policy.
