A New Creation

By: Amanda Lane Hall

As sweet morning light cascades over me,
I slowly open my eyes to a new world.... a new creation.

No longer am I yearning, for something that is lost,
I am reborn,
I am anew.

So long have I waited, for my soul to repair,
from the heartbreak it's endured all this time,
Finally, I may again be myself,
and not a slave to my emotions,
It seems I am at long last....free!

I have nothing weighting me down now,
not a heavy heart, not a heavy soul,
I can finally soar up through the clouds....
and see sunshine.

God has lifted the burden from my shoulders,
and buried it deep inside me,
so that I may enjoy life, like I should.

I know someday, something will jog my memory,
and release these feelings I have inside,
but for now I am thankful..... I have peace.

When I am one with my emotions,
I will feel pain no longer,
but I can't be one until I know the truth.

I only 'think' I know the truth,
and that's just not enough,
So I must force myself to let go of the past;
to hold on would only bring me more heartbreak,
something I need no more.

So by letting myself pull in,
I am really bursting out,
of the shell I've been in since you've gone.
I am reaching out, beyond the stars....
and finding comfort in them.

I have changed, I am a different person,
but you would still know me,
for I have the same soul,
and I always will...
Forever.
