Soul of blood

She found me there in my death,

lifted me up as life was undone.

Holding out long enough to feel,

taking from me this pain.

Spiraling upwards I fall into her,

arms open wide kiss left behind.

Flushed eyes bleeding light,

soul of exotic imagery.

Kneeling before her I smile,

wrapped around me her arms.

Holding close breathing hearts,

soul of blood living on.

Stars of glass shattering tonight,

waves of lust my pain.

River of darkness my heart,

feeling lost without my way.

Hands exchanged with trust,

buried inside tears of blood.

Crying happiness remembered,

touch of forever unsaid.

Lifting up what was fallen,

up to flames burning clean.

Letting go to be forgotten,

life of love soul of blood.

No start to end to I stand,

end of beginning we fall.

Heart of love making new light,

darkness of shadows my blood.

Craving nothing holding on,

hearts blending as one.

Hands together futile existence,

life inside of my death.

Reaching in to uncover,

feeling awake in my dreams.

Tested by fate everlasting,

waking in her arms once again.
