In Retrospect

Your perspective is starting to shift
With these thoughts in retrospect
Wasn't clever enough to thrift
You spent too much on neglect

And left yourself behind
Gave witness to your demise
And came back to find
What was missing inside

Changes got you sentimental
Learning your true worth wasn't accidental
The only way ahead is straight and true
Out of the deep blue, turning you into someone new

Dawning of a new day
With the past falling to rest
What good could swing your way
As you march forward with the best?

Feeling lighter with time
As you shred off your skin
Bathed in the sublime
That you've found within

Changes got you sentimental
Learning your true worth wasn't accidental
The only way ahead is straight and true
Out of the deep blue, turning you into someone new
