This morning I woke up to live
got out of bed
breathed
felt
smiled

I felt the satisfaction of productivity
warm sun on my back during a
half smoked cigarette
the frustration of a roommate
the bitterness of a carbonated beverage
strength in my body
felt

today I live the first day of my life
live
life
and it feels good
I encounter
respond
let emotion be evoked
evoke.

today I let the world embrace me
today I am born
