A New Start

A New Start

Take me to the lands beyond the dark
Where sunlight burns the shadows from the earth
Take me through the slumbers of your soul
Where dreamscapes rise and crumbling mountains fall

Paint me places where there is no pain
Where neither sadness nor confusion reign
Where time has slowed
And only clear blue skies remain
Of storms long past and waters flowed

Pull me from a clear and tranquil sea
The waters warm, and buoyed with salt
Release me from the flotsam in my heart
Into a gentle nothing, a new start
