Dawn & Dusk

Regret is a deep pain
A dull, constant ache
Throbbing in my chest
Like my heart’s about to break

But deeper still
Swells a new sound
A fervent beating
Hope rising from the ground

A new door is opened
As you let go of the past
New opportunities arise
Ones that will last

Don’t get stuck
In cycles of regret
Yes, you must grieve and mourn
It doesn’t mean you have to forget

But when you have cried the tears
And have felt the pain
Tune into that new rhythm
The beat of hope rising again
