Renew
Chilled,
rejection on ice.
Time frozen skills
painfully renewed.
Burnt,
around the edges.
Emotions tanning
in retaliatory rays.
Diving,
into relationships
murky, and untested
paddling new strokes.
Spelunking,
the unknown self,
discovering a friend
once thought an enemy.
Springing,
into new thoughts,
welcoming change.
Face lifted to the sun.
