gold, so pure.

it’s something new
at least, that is how i feel
in these years
that i have known you

it cannot be explained
how you have
pressed me into your palm
with love
that gives no conditions

i am hopeful
i am joyful
i am free

it’s something new
at least, that is what I know
after these months
that I have struggled

it cannot be explained
how you have picked me up
taken everything broken
and, refined it
into gold, so pure.

i am thankful
i am happy
i am free

it’s something new
at least, that is what I believe
after all this time
that i have wondered

i am overwhelmed
i am dancing in the kitchen
i am smiling
with this gift you’ve given me

so sweet, so pure
you’ve made me see
there is purpose in the pain
for redemption, I would not know
you turn the brokenness
into gold, so pure.

had it not been
for all the wrestling
we never would have
ended up here

oh, we never would have
ended up here
gold, so pure
only you knew
all this time
all along
you were making something new.
