Shiny and beautiful and new

For the broken. It doesn't have to be this way. Blessings. 

Shiny and beautiful and new

Your broken pieces 
Keep making me bleed
Every time I show you kindness 
You act like you don't need it 

And the blood that is spilled 
Even if it's unseen and unheard 
Still breaks my heart each time 
Leaves my soul with another hurt

Why do you feel the need to do this?
Why do you need the dark and pain?
Why do you need to mock the good?
Why do you feel you need to gain?

For everything I give, I give freely 
For everything I have, I share fully 
For everything I am, I share authentically 
For everything I do, I do truthfully 

There's no hidden agenda 
There's no trapdoor or cage 
There's no contract or bondage
There's no pain or rage

It's love and light and hope
It's kindness and compassion 
It's empathy and grace 
It's God's mercy and plan in action 

And your broken pieces 
They're being transmuted and healed 
They've been blessed and transformed 
From dark energy to pure freedom 

You can look in the mirror 
You can start to see the good
There's no more need to be confused 
Your soul wants to be understood 

Inside you the light is dawning 
God's message has broken through 
Broken pieces forming a new whole 
Shiny and beautiful and new
