Hand me a new face
my smiles lost it's grace
from one too many unsightly sights
I've changed
but I'm not up for the chase

Coat me in fresh skin
my hide is wearing thin
holy recycling of earthly flesh
give in
but you think they'd call it sin

Grant me my rebirth
put my temple to the earth
the tunnel home is lit by labor pains
breath in
though I'm not sure what it's worth

Michael...I think we all long for a "regeneration" now and then.  Your poem says it so well.  Hardrock

Well written!! Hold on to who you are though. I am sure there is something good still hiding in there.  Find it and make it dance (so to speak)

Peace

Once there was a darkness
Deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had
Ahhhhhh you gave me light

Perhaps no longer grace, but maybe wisdom?  I thought this poem was great!

~I tried replying to this yesterday,...I guess it didn't go through. Anyway,...I felt it whole. Can't count how many times I have cried for this...."Grant me my rebirth".
Well written. Take care MG. *Peace.
