I’ve seen my life in black and white,
Triggered by the thoughts I screamed,

Curiosity told me to walk,
Pain told me to stay,

It was once I saw the flowers bloom,
That a realized my life could go boom,

Now I see my life in color,
Triggering my eyes to open,

Love tells me to go run forward,
And life tells me breathe.
