More of me

More of me

Today i woke to a surprise, whilst tucked up in my bed, i had the realisation, I'm more than just the man that's living in my head

There are still remnants of the man i was, of the man i used to be, even though I'm broken, I'm sure I'll set him free

More than just arms and brain, I've found again my drive, I've felt a spark of my old self today, it's made me feel alive

Maybe I've got more to give, i think I've found the inner me, today I've felt my spirits rise, i feel my soul is free

A fire has started in my heart, inspired by a dream, it's shaken off the dust of doubt, now the old me shall be seen

A renewed breath of direction, clearing myself of a cluttered mind, i can see who i once was, before i was so blind

Wrapped up in my situation, seeing just this broken bloke, only seeing sadness, on tears of hurt i choke

How can this all change, how comes now i feel the Sun, maybe I've become to accept who i am, i think my tears are done

I imagine I'll have bad days, I'm sure some clouds will pass, but as for wallowing in self pity, well that can kiss my arse

My life maybe different now, I've swapped my legs for wheels, that dont mean my life is done, though at time that's how it feels

So bring on the new day, I've a new smile upon my face, come on lifes challenges, I'm now ready for this race
