Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust,
The end of all we knew.
The death of all the love and trust,
To be reborn anew.
Spring, rebirth, a phoenix,
All symbols we all have seen.
One step forward, not a trick
Fleeing from where I’ve been.
Who was I? It matters not,
What matters is where I can go.
Sure-footed now, giving all I have got
Can’t let the relief show.
The past is behind, and I don’t dare look back -
Or else I may lose the way
One day at a time, my plan of attack,
I am stronger, or so they say.
What will I face? I’m excited to see
Despite all I’ve left behind.
The worst has now gone, I guarantee
No more will I be blind.
You’re by my side, that’s the difference this time
The reason I’m so sure -
We’re both damaged turned kind
Two halves of something pure.
