the newness of now of beginning again
seeing sunrises each moment
finding redemption in each step

i so want you to be at peace
laying to rest past trauma
embracing serenity and building your solitude

find yourself in this newness
like a reclaimed brave voice
in your own wilderness
that i can respect
though never fully understand

i see more than my words say
as i lie naked on the bare ground vulnerable in my own being

you dont need my words
you dont need my permission
just my lovespace
it gives you to fill your newness
