Whole
The pain is slowly fading,
I see myself as whole again.
The stars and scars scream,
but darkness seems to change.
A weary soul and mind,
in letting go it finds rest.

The sun reflects the truth,
and I smile to the messiah.
I found a way to save myself,
from worry of all my chains.
In the darkness there I laid,
in silence my body suffocated,
but in time I found the way.

I found the reason for life,
I found the autumn in spring.
That leaves need to fall,
so green newborns can arrive.
That pain leads to discovery,
discovery to understanding.

Now I understand that,
worry really pains the soul.
Hatred only inward goes.
The light is found in hope,
darkness doesn't ever really fade
but you do learn to hug it,
hug the darkest parts of yourself.
