Rearranged

My whole layout you rearranged
fragments fit my shredded heart,  
revived by a blackout unplanned; 

Cabinets you couldn’t leave closed, 
repairing hinges that had fallen apart; 
My whole layout you rearranged; 

Led me down a route untouched 
unprepared for all you would impart, 
revived by a blackout unplanned; 

All that was familiar now changed
as I stretch along this new chart;
My whole layout you rearranged;  

Doors and windows you have opened,  
transformed this home from the start;
revived by a blackout unplanned; 

Commencement began at the end 
I am excited to finally depart;
My whole layout you rearranged,
revived by a blackout unplanned.
