Hearth

I want to grow
into my own skin

to slowly bow
Ridding me of sin


I want to bid
farewell, the old me

To become my id
So I can just be

with gratitude
and reverence

A person with
So much fortitude

A man to trust
With your confidence



it's time to shed
My old lions way

And move ahead
So listen as I say

To stay the same
Is to but perish

So with no shame
And life to cherish

I choose a new way
Beginning today

With a warm hearth
On mother earth
