Brought Back

I am dead, cold and numb
Feeling so bad, hurt, dumb
Never understanding why

My eyes are open wide and staring
Everyone looking no one caring
Thousands of tears to cry

Not wearing black anymore
Because I shed my outer core
No longer wanting to die

Smiling freely no longer in pain
These tears no longer stain
Not needing wings to fly

I’ve been given another chance
To laugh and play and dance
Gone are all the tears

I know I’ll bleed to death
Another gasp my last breath
Enough words have been said

My eyes will glaze and no longer see
I know what they see when they see me
Lost the sight filmed in red

Gone is my simple black attire
Never again called a liar
The despair has been shed

My face breaking into a smile
No more tears falling on tile
No longer wanting to be dead

I have another chance to live
To once again receive and give
Gone are all my fears
