When friends reinvent themselves...

A NEW ME
The time has come for me to walk on
When there is no flame in the heart and it feels like broken
When there are no exciting stories
When there are no stories at all
When you no longer crave for stars
When the day is comprised by hours instead of magical moments
Time to leave the nest and venture out
Step into a world never known before
Or maybe known, but forgotten
To experience new things behind every door
Or maybe not so new ones, but forgotten
To fend for myself, to reconfirm that I can stand
As I have stood many times before
it is time to begin a new life as a recreation of myself
A better version, or a least another version
One that does crave for stars and sunny Sunday mornings;
Warm sunlight through the window;
A song; a line in your favourite book times ten, times hundred
My new goal: to tale success after every test
To survive dangers and perils with my every breath
To mature and acquire wisdom is my plan
Is this is a sign I had forgotten about me?
No, it is a clear sign it is now time.
It is time to become a better me
A more complete me
One that has walked through the rain without getting wet
One that has touched the fire and gotten burnt,
yet still believes in its power
This is the perfect time for a new beginning.
Love bites, rarely chews and never swallows
Broken hearts? Not possible.
Experienced souls, always.
Always.
This is the perfect time for a new beginning.
A new me.
(I wrote these lines for a friend who is in the process or recreating herself. Good luck and enjoy the moment!)

Dear Nacho
This is really a beautiful poem - I can imagine your friend breaking out in tears while listening your ever caring words and voice! You seem to speak from the heart and from experience... It is wonderful!
Dear LC! I wish you all the best to reinvent yourself!!!!
