Captive

At this starting,

There is enough smarting,

But after the parting,

There is no imputing.

To begin as new,

With my lessons few,

I have to learn to chew,

What I need to eschew.

On this fresh page,

I want no marks of age,

At this stage,

I want no excess baggage.

I am a new package,

That came from all this wreckage,

Now I want to give a message,

To assuage.

In this new room,

I want to break free and zoom,

I want to get out of gloom,

From this feeling of doom.

I have a new perspective,

It is receptive and subjective,

Making me less susceptive,

Holding me no more a captive.
