Resurrection

I've been estranged from love and dreams
A fool for everything I once believed to be
Eternal and sweet

Kindred spirit,
smile sweetly
Pretty Raven,
come closer
Don't you dare pull away from me

I'd drown for the promise of weeping in tune
To the sadness and beauty that I've seen in you
Let's paint a poem with Heartache's liver
Take my hand and watch Love's cadaver quiver

You're my resurrection
An enchanted drop of poison
On my lifeless lips
Would you dare to ensnare me
My venomous Aphrodite
And resurrect me with a kiss?


I've been a captive to solitude and fear
Abandoned by everything that I once held dear
Bereft of tears

Darling in the dark,
drag my corpse home
Be the elixir
that floods my heart
The rose in the glass I could call my own

I'm longing for moments of bleeding wine
Refined to your liking, our tastes synchronized
Let's lift the lid over this heart-shaped casket
I'll be yours if you smile again,
and tell me you've been waiting
