I Am Alive

In the darkness, I lost my way Groping through empty space my soul yearned for hope, I hope to find in such despair, the kind words of a friend The gentle touch of my father The warm embrace my mother could give Oh! life I seek to find you My lungs was pleading for mercy, Gasping, gasping for air to breath I could see with pain my life slipping away, as they had so desired God! I called out, If you are real, send me help The silence fell, the curtains dropped falling over my fragile body, my weak arms and shaky feet could this be the end for me? Oh! I wonder, searching through my emptiness the mystery of life The joy of living, a reason to live on, to hope on and dream on Am awake from this sleep of mine From this state of mind I refuse to be put down by you my misery and my foe, By you great adversary I faced yesterday By you Oh darkness that once entangled me The shining of the sun smiling so bright at me today tells me these; You are alive! You can hope on, You can dream on, You can trust on, You can live on, For this reason I say it out loud, I am alive!!!
