before the new day breaks

Before the new day breaks,
And a new year starts to rise,
Before I put these demons to bed,
Before I stifle these crys.
I have a tear to shed.
Just one for the pain,
One more for the ache
One more for fear of the new
One for the doctors
One for the wait
My tears number more than a few
I need a good cry 
for the year that has been
And the pain I felt in the past
So I can start the new year
On a blank slate 
May it be better than the last.
