Shed your weathered skin
you have been born anew
Today is a new day
revealing the new you
There is no need to stumble
when there's a soft place to land
Find it first in yourself
then let others lend their hand
Everything must die
in order to transform
As our souls reincarnate
growth aided by the storm
Expend a new breath
waste not another tear
Dance to your own rhythm
face what you fear
Author notes
Written to remind myself and others, that there will always be a new day, for there will be many times in our life when we shed our skin to reveal new growth, leaving behind what held us back...

Skating away on the thin ice of a new day. A bit of Tull there
Yeah, your poem was very good. I especially liked your last line, because according to a man much cleverer than I , you are what you most fear. I don't know how that really works out though. But I liked your poem a lot, well done
