A New Beginning
A New Beginning
And now I begin anew,
the blood of both of us has been spilt,
and his has cleansed me with grace.
No matter what I’ve done,
No matter what I’ve said,
No matter what I’ve felt,
Freedom is finally mine.
My jail breaker has stormed the prison of which I was enclosed.
As tears of confusion and sorrow fall,
I ask this of you:
Do not pity my suffering,
for it is gone now.
Do not fret for my old way,
for they have been diminished.
Do not worry for my safety,
for now I am protected.
Do not hide from me,
for I will never hurt you again.
Do not remember the pains I’ve caused,
for I regret them more than you could know.
Do not allow my past to fool you,
for I am no longer plagued by its memory.
Do not recall my lies,
for now I want to speak the truth.
Do not remember me,
for what I was is no longer living.
Like a phoenix from the ash,
I am reborn.
I loved this when you first showed it to me back in the beginning of May
but dude, after hearing your testimony last night– I love it just that much more. The first part of the whole thing– “And now I begin anew,the blood of both of us has been spilt,and his has cleansed me with grace”– WOW. That really hit me. SO good. Thank you so much for sharing.
