Alive Again

At last,

I hear my breath again,

Notice how the wind blows,

And how people are.

 

Finally, my mind

Awakens,

And victory is mine,

And I’m free to think again.

 

After all this time,

My mind awakens

From and endless slumber,

And no longer do I act

Merely on impulse.

 

At last,

I feel

Alive again.

Just something I wrote late at night...

This just lifts the mind and heart to read. So many of us have gone through those times of darkness.. times when we were so numb.. To see your words awaken to life.. oh, it makes that sensation so vivid!

[Anthony Garcia]

Lovely. This piece even gives you that feeling, like waking up with that long gasp for air. The simplicity speaks volumes over any kind of naritave approach =]

[FeliciaS (Poetic Prince..]

Alicia-- Very well thought out. It was definitely written with feeling and compassion and I could feel it all as I read it. Good job. Margaret
