Live Again
Search for light
Search again
Find your heart amongst the darkness
Beneath the thistles
Behind locked doors
Chained
Grope for brilliance
Search for Him
Away from dusk
Away from grief-strickenness
In broad daylight
Freedom
Breathe it in
Breathe out
Find yourself
Amongst the light
Within the dazzle
Behind the sparkle
Perfect
As the rain falls
Hitting the ground
Slapping the leaves
Calling the mist
As the mist embraces you
Holds you tight
Forcing you to breath
Compelling you to live
Making way to your lungs
Making you live again
Willing life
Commanding you
As the mist
Holds you close
Teaching you
The dance of life
As the sound of leaves
Dripping slowly
Slipping droplets
Onto the cold pavement
As you hear the sound of your feet
Hitting the ground
Feeling strength
Freedom
As you hear the dull pounding
Thud of your foot
The sound of love
Beating out time
You hear the time
Called out
Foot matching
The beat of you heart
You heart knocks
Hammering gently
Against your chest
Against your lungs
As your ribs move
The dance in time to the song
The beat of life
Life
Ribs expand and lungs breathe life
Feet pushing off
Sole meeting pavement
Body moving in rhythm
The only thing willing you to go on
Determination
The only thing willing you to live on
Tenacity
The song of life
The will to live
The song of love
The will to live
