My Rebirth

Where there were once tears of sorrow,
They are no more,
Body and soul, I seek potency within.

Shrouded in darkness, I now find the light,
I must be vigilant as there is always darkness that lingers.
I take a walk down the corridors of time,
Over look what has been, what is now, and what will come to pass,

I must not be afraid,
Where there is fear,
Comfort will come,
Patience is the key.

My body is broken,
Heart bleeds from pain,
My eyes see no more deceit to this world.
I cower no more

I close my eyes,
Release all sorrows inside,
I worry not for I know my heart shall heal in time.
I have self-confidence.

There is a light within,
Seek it beyond my darkness,
If found, I must walk to it,
For there lies a door beyond.

If I believe once more,
The door will open,
I wish to find redemption.
Forgiveness and help will come to me if only I ask.

Behind the door lies a pool,
If I trust than will I bathe in its waters.
I leave behind all misfortunes,
I shall be reborn.

Breathe again,
All is forgiven,
I appreciate this second chance.
Time is what I have.

Have faith,
I know I am loved,
I am free,
This is me,
This is the story of my rebirth.
