I Know I'm Alive

July 12, 2015

...Because your face looked much more tired than the

Monster

In my dream.

I know I'm alive

Because full recovery meant I saw you as

Human.

I know I'm alive

Because no matter how much you took:

When the smoke cleared,

When I repaired myself,

What was left among the rubble shone

So brightly in the sun.
