Look at the lines I put on myself,
I made them before the water was poured.
Can you feel it?
The feeling I became,
the only feeling I felt.
I felt alive,
or so I believed,
with the pulse of my heart running through me.
Can you feel it?
I loosened my veins,
by the power of a life-giving liquid.
Coursing through,
expressing life out of lifelessness,
but only for a while before my body welcomed rest.
[list]Whittled and battered,
the liquid reversed its effect,
and yet,
the feeling once more arose,
to let me know for sure,
I was alive.[/list:u]
Can you feel it?
