Alive With Hope This Mortal Flesh

[SIZE=5][B]Alive With Hope This Mortal Flesh[/B][/SIZE] Soon when storm its angry breath blows Its drumming raid tells earth to feel And earth's grass spreads its dark green toes Sky cries out, this is a new deal Alive with hope this mortal flesh. Although this soul may then tap-dance Tho' so well I feel thrashing rain And this heart exudes sweet romance This soul yet cries out its dire pain Alive with hope this mortal flesh. Gleam so bright dearest Rainbow Beg I, heaven this soul uplifts I love her so dear, miss her so But truth is she ran away swift Alive with hope this mortal flesh. As the splatter hits downcast face Her rare perfume I can yet smell Truth knows life cannot her replace My all, feels in torturous Hell Alive with hope this mortal flesh. Heart begging to find love anew Its hungry beats seeking true love But memory says, I miss you As I ask help from Lord above Alive with hope this mortal flesh. Yet in each night flies that dark hour Which 'tis born of deepest despair I watch as falls stormy shower Thinking of her beautiful hair Alive with hope this mortal flesh. Yet this soul knows life shall return! As I now these love letters burn! Truth lives and loving now I earn! A brand-new life, heartache I spurn! Alive with hope this mortal flesh!

This is so heartfelt and poignant, i felt so emotions reading your poem, the angst and longing, and missing her, as her perfume still lingers, although you do know that theres more to life etc. for some reason your words are melodious, and they flow in such a moving manner, and i absolutely love the way you rhyme, they are unique and profound. This is one of my fave from you. Evocative and touching. Loved this
