Solitude

Anything that you wish to

Improve about yourself.

Whether it’s your attitude

Your bank account or health.

Can be changed if you only start

To look at it this way:

“I used to be like that but now

Today is a new day”.

If you’d only adapt this

Real simple way of thinking.

To put your habits in the past

And from yourself unlinking.

And say “I used to be angry”

Or “I used to be broke”

“I used to have a weight problem”

“I used to drink or smoke”.

If you would just untie yourself

From how you have defined.

If you would make it in past tense

And leave it all behind.

Then one day soon you will look back

To recognize and see.

That things you wished to change are now

The things you used to be.
