RENEWAL

Shedding old skin, renewed like the spring,
Effervescent
Like the moon waxes, wanes, born again,
Turns crescent.
Dead leaves go underground, sympathy found
In dark holes
Where new buds bloom in the living room
Of your soul.

Make time to evolve, watch the past dissolve
In an ocean
Of lies and deceit, time to delete
Old emotions.
Pack your bags on the double, leave your troubles
And strife.
As tears start to subside, enjoy the ride
Of your life.
