I’ve mourned and transformed
Into something I never use to be.
And when it’s all said and done
I hope I like the new me.
When the sand has settled
And the tide has turned,
When peace finds my soul
And my heart no longer yearns,
I hope I like what I see.
The change that was strange
Is now comfort to me.
I almost can’t wait to meet the new me.
When laugh lines begin to hide
My tear stained cheek
I’ll be sent love from up above
Then metamorphous is complete.
I’ll walk higher and burn with desire
You just wait and see – the new me!
