Poem-- "A New Year; A New You"

You never know what the future holds.
Until you reach that moment and it unfolds.
Everything that you've done, everything that you've said.
They're in your past now and to your present they've led.
Whether you've had mistakes or have done all the right things.
It's too late to change the song which your past now sings.
Discard your regrets, it's too late to feel bad.
But avoid the oncoming with the experience that you've had.
Forget of your sins, what's done is done.
You can't enjoy life if your life is to run.
Remember the times when you've seen yourself smile.
Now repeat those times and add your new style.
For people enjoy to see what you've become.
You'll be an angel to certain and a devil to some.
Through their eyes you'll change, but please keep in mind.
You are in control of everything that others will find.
And nobody's perfect, so don't let them believe that they are.
Because if you think you've reached perfection, you haven't been reaching too far.
Constant evolution is what consists of our lives.
And constant evolution is when the future arrives.
