My new avow

Another era has ended

Not in a way I Intended

Dread the nearing event

I Anticipated for long

But of my life present feels wrong

Notion of time misspent

Sensing my new era splendid

But will leave a few unfriended

Sitting on change advent

Walking now away from the bong

But fearing repeats of the song

Could my progress be bent?

Obliged now to participate

Afraid to set the record straight

Maybe just one more time

A path anew is awaiting

But fearing another falling

Betraying myself a crime

I’m so close to an open gate

Once again, I leave it to wait

Rejecting my own prime

Not spending my time creating

Causing stalling in translating

Knowing I should now climb

Want to be climbing forever

To leave the past an endeavour

What I need to do now

Making it the eleventh hour

Making my newfound taste less sour

The question now is how

How to tell my truth to never

Never again say whenever

God gave me this endow

To blossom into a flower

Standing atop my own tower

Stating my new avow.
