phases

I go through phases, waxing and waning
Equal parts light and dark, joy and pain
From new moon I learn to heal in the dark
Repair and rebuild be reborn and refilled

At times I feel perfectly split down the middle
Equal parts her and him
And just like the spinning half moon
I am both yang and yin
I am yang and yin

I start to rise and fall as the tides push and pull
Remembering when I am half empty I'm half full

We must cycle through darkness to get to the light
Learn to laugh at the shadows
Lay awake there in the night
Honor the parts of you that seem at odds
The whole is always there
Illuminated or not

I used to be frozen in fear and self-loathing
But full moon taught me to shine on until morning
Because what we think soon becomes what we choose
Believe you have won
And you'll never lose

I start to rise and fall as the tides push and pull
Remembering when I am half empty I'm half full

Moonlight is just a reflection of the sun
Pieces of yourself scattered in everyone
When you feel alone just look to the night sky
Change is constant
So just let your moon shine

Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine
Let your moon shine

I start to rise and fall as the tides push and pull
Remembering when I am half empty I'm half full
