Fresh Mind

Today I looked in the mirror
And what I saw was new
Not the wounds anymore
Not the past
But so many - infinite - possibilities.
Today…
Can I manage it this time?
Drop the bad habits
Step out of the spiral
Move forward
Just like this, without help,
If only it was as easy
As clear water on your face
Washing away the make up
And looking straight at yourself.
I really would like
To keep feeling this way
Always fresh and new…
There is no reason why
It shouldn’t work this time.
I just need to remember
How I felt today.
