A Kiss of Rebirth

Once, I tumbled into a dam,
My mind adrift, disconnected from the world,
They assumed my life had ceased,
Yet, your touch of life revived me.

Although named a "kiss of life,"
Truly, it held healing power within,
An embrace of restoration,
And what lingers in my memory,
Is how it tasted like the sweetest nectar.
