Embracing Each New Day
I lived in a lonely and melancholy manner
The coldness in my soul resembled a winter's
night.
I begged for the grim reaper to take me
he didn't respond to my sincere invitation.
Waking up each day was such a drag, I
wanted my life to be over as soon as possible.
Inside of my heart was a deep hollowness.
I was skin and bones that was ready to die.
I was lingering at death's door until
an angel came and spoke life to me.
Giving me a reason live, my angel
caused me to see the world differently.
Awakening me from sleep, I was in a
coma-like state of mind.
With my new set of eyes, I welcome
and embrace the life I'm given each day.
