Let’s start to live anew, my friend,
Begin with self – transform, amend.
Trust only in the Holy Spirit’s might,
Trust God, whose love shines day and night.
Don’t fire harsh words like bullets, blind,
That wound the soul and break the mind.
Don’t wait for judgment’s heavy hand,
Turn from sin – seek God’s command.
I hear the tram’s familiar chime,
The church bells ring in perfect time.
My senses chill, my spirit’s numb,
Yet my mind seeks words to come.
I long to feel my Father’s breath,
To breathe out sorrow, conquer death.
For all You’ve done, I bless Your name –
Great God, You are the King of kings, amen.
Saint Petersburg, 2016
