Reanimate

life is so very short
yet i missed so much
my eyes refocusing
on things i can touch
my limbs reanimate
i’m gasping for breath
an unexpected twist
salvation from near death
ch
i cannot believe my eyes
i am alive
i feel my body move
the haze start to lift
like waking from a crash
my instincts primitive
so full of gratefulness
and disbelief
at the connectedness
my eyes finally see
ch
bridge
i’m alive
i survived
the accidental pioneer
oh, i can explain how i got to the ledge
the mystery is how i got here
