Well I don’t know to what time I wanted to get myself back to when I wrote this, but it seems as if I was longing for some happy news and for a place to hide and lick my scars....
It’s not the best I’ve done but I remember the feeling I had watching the moon and open up my heart and soul. I still do that sometimes.
Like always feedback and comments are welcome.

While I was alive
I’m watching the bright moonlight A‘
Shining mildly, crystal clear
Wanna ride on a moonbeam
Back to the times without fear
When I was so full of faith
Sorrows seemed to just pass by
Moved by the warm Summerwind
Like clouds high up in the sky
In those days I was so free. A+
Butterfly with coloured wings
Without any doubts and strain
Focused on the happy things
No tears and no bitterness
Everything seemed just in place
Peace at mind it felt so good
Like the moonlight on my face
While I was alive. B
All my wishes seemed to thrive
While I was alive
A time of joy seemed to arrive
While I was alive
All my dreams seemed to thrive
Before the shadows came to live
I wanted more than only survive
Cling, clung, clung. C
But there was nothing to hold on to
Fall, fell, fallen
Now I’m down on my knees
Cling, clung, clung
But there was nothing to hold on to
Sing, sang, sung
This song
And I hope that I may find inner peace
While I was alive. B
All my wishes seemed to thrive
While I was alive
A time of joy seemed to arrive
While I was alive
All my dreams seemed to thrive
Before the shadows came to live
I wanted more than only survive
(Fade out over B)

You have written some nice verses. I really like the first 2.
I get that this person is remembering happy times. Before 'something' bad happened.
I am not crazy on the C part. I would reconsider writing something that tells more about what actually happened.
