Renascence

Renascence, commence
Out with the old
It’s time for the phoenix
The embers grow cold

Renascence, intense
Shedding one’s skin
Slough off the layers
And try to begin

Renascence, immense
No little change
Break it all down
A complete rearrange

Renascence, effulgence
Let it all shine
I could not have done it
Without the divine
