I would like to tear all the skin off my body and start again
Rip away all my cells
Throw it all away
Pull my hairs out
For being so foolish
And be re born
But there’s a simpler option
I could gargle three times, wash my face, wash my arms, wipe water across my hair, pass it through my ears and over my feet
And I’m reborn
And pray and cry and pray and cry and pray and cry
Repeat this until my heart becomes soft again
And remind myself it will because it has become before
And he loves those who keep on returning
He loves me
He loves you
He loves us
God is full of love and forgiveness
We must remember
And when you are reborn you will come back better than before
A new layer of soft golden skin
That glows
But you may start to fall again.
But this time it will hurt as soon as you slip
And it may take you longer to want to peel your skin off again in complete regret
But you will
He is waiting
The process may take longer than the last time
But you are worthy of great change
And you will return better than before
