Renewed

Renewed

A cycle has been closed,
with it transmutation has concluded.
What once was is no more,
what caused pain has ceased.

A new beginning, a new world,
scary, bright and wonderful to behold,
a new light that shines powerful, 
warm and comforting, shining from within.

A renewed soul, with so much to give
so much to learn and so much to live.

Renewed strength and a new path to find,
renewed and grateful for new life to enjoy.

-Efraín Valencia

En Paz (Salto al vacío IV)

Negros abismos he atravesado
dando vueltas y sin rumbo,
con miedo, desesperado,
solo, perdido,
en la Locura abandonado.

Largo tiempo ha pasado,
el esfuerzo con sufrimiento 
ha sido pagado.

Mas ahora, aun con nubes negras
cubriendo el firmamento,
con calamidades y plagas
brota un nuevo sentimiento.

Impermeable a los elementos,
imperturbable, inagotable,
elevándose con los vientos
libre e inexorable.

En Paz, pleno y agradecido,
En Paz y libre del pasado
emerjo al fin del vacío.

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
al cielo digo; Paz, Paz, Paz.
A fin... me encontré a mi.

-Efraín Valencia
