TO  LIVE AGAIN

 A decision made

In the light of day

Emotion wasn't

 The driving force

The choice

Was made logically

All in my head

Only the dead

Had fun not living

And I wasn't

(Dead)

So I would live

My heart heard

And gave assent

And then the journey

To live began

Day by day and

Hour by hour,

Gaining power

 Minute by minute

Little steps

One at a time

But moving forward

I steadily climbed

Upward

Desert dry

I drank in each day

And as time went by

I realized

I was grateful again

To be alive.
