HALF EMPTY CUP

I am living in the light again.
Nothing outside has changed,
but nothing is the same.
I gave up my place in the world
when I stepped off of the river of time.
Something in my head tells me the life I Let go is only slightly worse than the fear of losin what I hope to gain.
But I am living in the light again,
And feel like a human being.
There is room for everyone on the river of time, until our turn to cross into the Abyss.
I'm living in the light again.
As I toast with a new generation,
I know my half empty cup will be
full.
