Raising The Dead

When emptiness has grown
and the long night is still
you touch my heart of stone
thus weakening my will

Your warmth trickles my veins
my forgotten flesh quakes
reviving what remains
as my lost soul awakes

Our breath becomes one
our longing lips kiss
what was worse is now done
life becomes hidden bliss

You, single handedly
honor raising the dead
releasing me souly
from my eternal bed

Wow, this is really good.  Someone has a special love potion, and just in time.
I really enjoyed reading this.

waking to living
joy blossoming tender warmth
depths touched beneath skin

WOW!!!!There is nothing that can hide the romance in this. A kiss to raise the dead. Magnificent. *grin* I do know that a kiss waken the sleeping parts of my heart. BRAVO!!! I love it. I am keeping this one.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
