New Life

I’ve been sitting around this life for years,
Not enough laughs and too many tears.
Trying to figure out where it all went,
These wasted years that I have spent.

Searching for something to take me forward
yet running backwards all the time.

Life’s a stone skipping across a pond.
At the last skip, it hits with a splash,
Down the stone sinks, gone in a flash.

Pushing and pulling, it’s tearing apart,
Poking and prodding an underused heart.
This dark velvet curtain that hides my soul,
Living this life has taken it’s toll

In a flash of bright light, the curtain is torn,
Tumbling down all tattered and worn.
Revealing new life, a child within,
Born free of hate, of suffering and sin.

Now my eyes see what has never been told,

Living and laughing, loving it all,
I stood myself up and answered the call.

Striving forth happy, confident and bold.
Into a world that’s unfamiliar but friendly,

Into a world thats full of sadness but offer hope
Into a world thats full of tears but full of Joy

Into a world thats full of life but only after Death
Into this new life my spirit will send me

Into this Darklandz.
