Let’s begin
The process of letting go
Of laying those ghosts to rest
Let’s begin
By leaving the heartache behind
And watch them fly
Let’s begin
By taking a big breath in
Knowing I can only do my best
Let’s begin
By wiping the slate clean
With tears already cried
Let’s begin
With a blank sheet of paper
To write a new life story…
But this time,
A happy one
Let’s just begin again
