“And This Makes Life New”

 

I have given you all but my very last breath,
and now - I feel as I have nothing left.
I guess this explains this empty shell;
Like a hallow vessel, or a dried up well.
I can never get back all the years that I’ve lost,
Like a tear in the sea of eternity tossed.
like a breath in the winter wind, never to return
All that I am left with is what I have learned.

And this makes life new…

You may have taken my heart, but my spirit remains.
You cannot break me, I have rose from the pain.
I have emerged from the ashes, and now I stand.
Though I can never turn back time, I now understand
You have given me the worse that life can give,
at times I tasted death, but now I live.
It’s the darkness that allows me to appreciate light.
it’s the blindness that helps me to understand sight.

And this makes life new…

I stand here a person who has endured the worse
who has lost so much and has felt so cursed
but I embrace this metamorphosis of my mind
it now feels as if the universe has aligned,
for through this pain I have found true love,
though not from the source I expected it of.
It has came from within and embraced my soul,
I had to be broken so I could be made whole.

And this makes life new…
