Spread Your Wings

Take a deep breath,
Then let out a sigh.
Spread your wings;
Soaring through the sky.

Prior deep wounds,
And all of their sorrow.
Leave them behind;
Don't burden tomorrow.

Forget the past,
Along with its pains.
For an new future
Is all that remains.

Gratefully exercise
This brand new chance.
Do not be fearful
To learn a new dance.

Approach each day
With joy and a smile.
Because this time,
You're going in style.

Discard the bad,
And seek out love.
Draw your strength
From the Lord above.

Freedom's price
Is often very high,
So spread your wings,
And prepare to fly.
