THAT CHERISHED MOMENT

I woke up

and looked in the mirror today

and saw hope

in my eyes

and happiness

and contentment...

I wondered whether I

was dreaming,

was this just another

unreal life

I was living

or was I finally alive

again !

I couldn't tear away my eyes

from the mirror

Afraid that this moment would

be lost forever

in the dusty attic of memories

only to be cherished

and never to be alive again

and then I closed my eyes

and it was there

the same moment

within ....deep within

and I could feel alive

and so I made my way

back to the world

of the living.
