Life Is Lived In Transformation

For after long... very long

I've realized the fault

I’ve realized the truth

The fault of killing my soul

The truth that I was not myself

The simple fact that I have changed...

For after long... very long

I've felt this urge again

I've felt the drive again

The urge to live my life again

The drive to laugh at every joke

The simple fact that the heart still beats...

For after long... very long

I'm scared to admit it

I'm scared to own it

Admit that too much has been wasted

Own that I can count the years

The simple fact that life won't be forever...

I lost so much in translation

I lost so much in transgression

I lost so much in the tears I cried

I lost so much in those fake smiles

How much more can I lose from me

Until I lose something called 'me'?

Do I have the strength in me

To make someone smile again?

Do I have the guts in me

To make someone live again?

Do I have any tears left over

To cry if someone hurts again?

Yet I will laugh, and I will cry

I dare to love, I dare defy

My hopes are high, I dream again

To swim the ocean, reach for the sky

I have emotions left for every occasion

I know, LIFE IS LIVED IN TRANSFORMATION.
