Breathe Life Back

(2nd February 2013)

So who am I now? 
Am I lost or freed? 
Time will tell 
It will show my fate 
And Breathe Life back where none was 

Fool to think I could get worse 
But damn ... I'll try 
Try to pick up, go on 
And better what is lost 

The fool, they say, 
Is he who believes the fool. 

But their words are like only stones 
Striking, they hurt, but bounce off, 
Fall back down the hillside, 
To return whence they came. 

I saw them go as I reeled 
The bruise will heal, 
But can the mind?
