I spent the summer
Avoiding the thought
This day would come.
Yes, I bought the right clothes
Changed my hair
Updated my phone.
None of that helped me
Shake this anxiousness
Will this year be different?
Will it be a success?
Do I have what it takes
To finish this year strong?
Will I be able to bounce back
When things go wrong?
As I walk through the door
And look down the hall
I see the familiar faces
Of those who watched me fall.
The seem surprised I made it back
From last year’s anxiety attack.
But, I realize I am stronger now
I know I can survive.
This year will be my best
Because I am still alive.
This is my fresh start
And I take it as a gift
That I will share with others
Who just might need a lift.
This is the beginning of hope
Absent of fear
This is the beginning
Of a successful year.

You got this! Cheering you on from here!
