Shift in Direction

I was surviving,
not living.
I was struggling,
not striving.
Vegetating,
not producing.
Sleeping and never waking.

Now I am awake.

My eyes are wide
open to the moon, stars, sun
and all that they illuminate.

Now I can learn
instead of faltering;
grow instead of withering.

I will love instead of
running in fear,
walk instead of stumbling
and live instead of dying.

Now I can be.
