The Air of Change

A certain change looms overhead, that I welcome with open arms;
I drink in all that’s new, possibility and all it’s charms.
As I look around and say farewell to a life I’ve known for years;
A certain place I no longer need, moving on without the tears.
I’ve taken my time to find my way, a path I’ve finally cleared;
This path was a rough and tangled road, the path I’ve come to fear.
But as this path of change takes place, I breathe a sigh of relief;
For God has gotten me through the woods, sometimes marked with disbelief.
I’m not sure where I’m going, or how this all will end;
But I know the woman I am today is more than on the mend.
I feel a push in the direction where change waits patiently;
I blindly grab for a hand, that’s waiting just for me.
And with that push, and with each step, I will grow stronger everyday;
For the air of change has decided, I have finally found my way.
