This Skin I'm in

This pretty much sums up this journey for today......

The butterfly can just look back 
Flap those wings and say Oh, yeah
I never have to be a worm again

The snake gets tired of being him 
He wriggles from that itchy skin
Leaves it lying where he’s been and moves on

I’ve been longing for something tangible
Some kind of proof that there’s been change in me

Feels like I have been waking up
Only to fight with the same old stuff
Change is slow and it fills me with such doubt
Come on New Man where have you been
Help me wriggle from this Self I’m in
And leave it like a skin upon the ground

(Lyrics by Sara Groves - Like A Skin)
