In the embrace of time, I found my way,
A journey of awakening, a brand-new day.
Leaving behind the echoes of the past,
Embracing a rebirth, a transformation so vast.

Like autumn leaves, I let go of the pain,
Childhood wounds released, no longer a chain.
Fragments of memories, once heavy as stone,
Now lifting away, as I reclaim my own.

Through the cracks, the light starts to seep,
In the midst of chaos, my soul takes a leap.
Everything crumbles, a divine symphony,
As I shed old layers, and finally feel free.

The caterpillar's struggle, the butterfly's grace,
A dance of existence, finding my place.
Tears turn to rivers, cleansing my core,
I'm rising, I'm soaring, I'm seeking much more.

In the path woven, of life's grand design,
I'm shedding old skin, as stars brightly shine.
A spiritual odyssey, a path to the truth,
I'm leaving the past, in the hands of my youth.

Through the cracks of my heart, a new dawn appears,
Each step a reminder, that I have no fears.
With strength I've discovered, from deep down inside,
I'm embracing my essence, no longer to hide.

So let the winds of change gently guide my way,
As I step into light, and begin a new day.
Rebirthed, renewed, like a phoenix I rise,
Leaving behind old wounds, as the old self unties.

I'm a foundation of growth, painted with grace,
A journey of healing, a sacred embrace.
With each breath, I'm letting go of the past,
Embracing my future, I'm free at last.
