You Are Alive
You maybe feel dead.
Or like your life is empty.
Useless. Depressing.
Act more confident,
Ready yourself for a change.
Everyone will see.
And you will become
Living again. A new life.
Instead of acting,
Vitality will ensure,
Every "act" will turn to truth.
(Now read the first letter of each haiku and tanka to reveal three words!)

Two haikus and a tanka, forming an acrostic. This was very difficult to write.
