Only this new day

There's only this new day
Between you and me
I don't know what it is
Guess we'll have to see

Are those clouds on the horizon?
Storms to sweep away the tears
Or only the charcoal dust?
Time in wasted fears

Does my cloud have a silver lining
Or simply a tarnished gleam?
Hard to tell some days
But I believe I'm more than I seem

So I'll just grab hold
Take the ride down the trail
Doing only what I can do
Whether I succeed or fail

There's only this new day
Between you and me
So here's my hand
Take it and let's see

This was a satisfying circular poem with a positive outcome. A feel good poem with a pleasant, easy rhyme and rhythm. A journey poem about the journey we take. Easy to relate to and enjoyable.

There's a mysifying atmosphere to this poem. I like how you used the clouds to signify opposite moods. I'm not exactly sure what it is from which the new day is separating the narrator... It looks like it could be a number of things. Allows room for speculation, I suppose.
