Rebirth

When i strode along the shores of death
In my own and lonely ways
And in the end i reached the bounds of life
And when the shadows called my name,
You came into my dreary world,
Like an everflowing stream of light.

With the touch of gentle hands
You comforted my barren soul,
When through your velvet-lips
New zest of life poured into my empty shell.

You are the incentive
That makes me live again.
When i feel the strength you share,
This energy is my sail,
That drove me from the shores of death,
Into a brave new world,
Wherein you are my leading hand.

Now that i'm reborn,
Forever we'll be together!
