As the world has turned

I feel myself changing in turn,

The world changes with me and sometimes against.

As our free country slips into darkness,

The second to our leader wishing that my people should change,

I find myself embracing love even more.

I rise, I outshine.

This year changed us all,

for better and for worse.

I believe in me more than ever,

I believe in the power of love.

I am not a skeptic anymore.

I believe in love 

for love is how we will all thrive in these dark times.
