Analysis of NEVER AGAIN



Yesterday was lame,
That I couldn't smile
In peaceful bla and quack.

My blindness lost away,
That I could see no more,
Dancing in ignorance and cue,
Awaiting the hopeless day,
That never come.

I perk like the bird,
Chirps like the howling hummingbird ,
Just once again and beyond!
But I still lost my dance step,
To negligence and lies.

Trailing a new me!
Is a game I must win,
And finding my new image must be crafted,
Like the clay,
From the dust land.

Once I realize my past,
Was a sham of lies I never bargain,
Until the hallowing wind,
That suddenly swept my hope as lies,

To this day,
I am careful and hopeful,
Regaining strength from above,
Walking through this tunnel of new birth.

Those days of tears are no more,
And days of agony has walked away,
Bringing me into a light of peace and love,
Just once to love again and again,
As I bade goodbye to singing ,

A new song continually,
Yes!....while a whole while it's just never again.
