The Day I Became A Better Human Being

I woke and found the world was wide, The sky a deeper shade of blue, The winds that whispered by my side Spoke truths I long but never knew. The burdens of my heart grew light, For I had learned to let them go, And in the tender morning light My soul began at last to grow. I saw the sorrow in each face, But in their eyes, the hope shone clear— That love, not time, would heal the space Where kindness had erased their fear.
