Today I feel alive, a new day has begun.

I don't have that urge to hurry or to turn around and run.

I want to feel the sunshine warming up my soul

where shadows of the past had grown so very cold.

I want to feel the breeze blow against my skin

and know the passing seconds will never be again.

I want to grab this very minute and carry it around

forever in my pocket like a treasure I have found.

Today I feel alive like my spirit has been free'd

the puzzle now completed I found the missing piece.

I know this day won't last forever, turning black as night

but at this very moment everything feels right.
