MY NEW LIFE

I would have never ever imagined
Well maybe a little

I would have never imagined on August 12, 2009 that just 4 years into my future
I would be sitting on a New York City
Subway train!

NEVER!!

Never would I imagined I was into
The last few weeks of my 17 yr marriage
Amazing!
We had been together for 20 yrs

Now come ahead 4 yrs
Here I sit on the train
Heading out of Brooklyn
Into Manhattan

Yes, it will be 4 yrs this October
I've done it alone

Life's lessons hit me hard
The blows have been fierce
Each time I get back up

Thank god I'm a survivor
I'm not quit sure everyone would have
Made it through

Never imagined
I was a mom
I had a house
A business
Our days were filled with work
And the boys sports

All gone
My family torn apart
The only 2 standing
Me & my younger son

I did this
I chose to do this

I have taken hits in all avenues of my life
Career
Financial
Personal

Life after my divorce hard
Reshaping who I am
The new me

The experiences here in the city
Will forever be lifetime memories
In my 70's & 80's I will reminisce
About living in Brooklyn & Manhattan,
I will always remember being a
New York City hairdresser

I'm tired
Worn out
Emotionally
Physically
Mentally

I want to just go somewhere quiet
Relax, sleep....

It's August 12th 2013, whoever would've imagined I would be in New York City
