This morning I woke up
And caught a glimpse of my reflection
In the mirror at my bedside
Where I critiqued my complexion.
The sun shone through my windows,
In a perfect arc of light,
As though banishing the demons
That loved haunting me at night.
In an instant I had known,
I could sense it right away,
Something here was different.
Something I could not outweigh.
And with this sudden change,
As I gazed upon my face,
The hurt and loss and torment
Had all left without a trace.
Yesterday was distant,
About a thousand miles away,
And as my heart beat strongly,
I knew change was on it's way.
