No Room for Pain – January 31, 2025

Declare my resolution to have new beginnings 

January unfolds my heart

a blank canvas,

a possibility today.

Break of dawn releasing the shadows,

the new beginning says

“No vacancy.“

Frosted soul,

home of a reality renewed

touch the earth

make a promise

welcome the beginning.

Leave behind sorrow

today, in my heart.
