my soul awakened today,
to find a new person surrounding it,
a wiser, happier being that knows not of yesterday,
but has kept the knowledge of her mistakes,
my soul awakened today,
to find a happier person surrounding it,
a joyful, free being, full of love and happiness,
ready for today, yearning for tomorrow,
my soul awakened today,
to find a curious sort of being surrounding it,
laughing at herself, waiting for the next moment,
to jump into new situations, and find a new love,
my soul awakened today,
and looked in the mirror,
to greet this new being and love herself anew.
