Released, redeemed, liberated -
the rigid heart open again, wide again.
Heavy and dark, they now lie asleep in the past.
Soon I dare to open my eyes, for I know what I see – light, confidence, a golden time.
May it last three times as long as the time of shadows.
May it take root deep in my heart and soul and be something whose echo, should it ever end, will remain with me forever.
Released, redeemed, liberated -
the rigid heart finally open again, finally wide again.
