Measure a Year

Then I was deaf,

Now I am listening..

Then I looked away,

Now I look closely.

Then I was paralyzed,

Now I move forward.

Then I thought I knew,

Now I know nothing.

Then I believed,

Now I have doubt.

Then I wondered "what if",

Now I know "then what."

Then I was low,

Now I am grounded.

Then I was impulsive,

Now I wait and see.

Then I was a shadow,

Now I am a better me.
