New Gold

Once upon a time
Once upon the sand
Once I saw the newness
burst Open in my hands

have you seen the gold
On the waters of a lake?
have you stretched your soul 
so you thought it would break?

I was freckled
so were you
we ran through the trees
till the sun set

the changes have come
like the unstoppable rivers
swiftly changing scenes 
ever flowing waters

But I am not afraid

each day grows brighter
than the last
each moment braver
as I get closer to the sun

until I burst into flame
and burn with life
that never comes to an end

I'm not afraid
