I seek that lantern
The spark deep within
The fire that blazes
Though dark tries to dim
The brighter it shines
Each step that I take
This form I shall shed
With each choice I make
Grace transmutes the pain
An act of deep love
Unbury myself
The one I've heard of
I must walk forward
Journey far inside
Heal the wounds I hid
Cry those tears denied
As my lantern burns
Casts light upon shade
I know it is I
Who has most betrayed
Revelations veiled
Shadows are not foes
But guide and direct
With truths to disclose
I molt and reshape
I shall not succumb
This chrysalis holds
The me I'll become
