Resurrection

Turn out the light let's disappear,
haunted by these shadows that bind 
us here.
inside of our own mind a maze of 
dual reality,
I'm hiding in the shadows of a new 
day come rescue me.
you don't know let my fate decide,
you don't know that I've died. 
wake up my dead heart let it beat 
again,
help me find a reason to live my 
friend.
I'm buried in a box of old matches,
light them let's begin the spell of 
resurrection.
bury me in a dress made of satin lie 
me in roses roses,
Lay me to rest in the place I love.
Somewhere off the shores of let's 
pretend in the sea above.

enjoying this poem again Samantha, congratulations. ... By the way I have something to say to all who supported my ANY POEM # 19 contest. Shame on me, Shame on me! Please forgive me, for not taking the time, to CONGRATULATE and adore all the winning poems for a second or third time. I AM VERY LATE:(-- I was a little mad at the world. However, this is my winning list, I will give everyone the same love and support. I'm dropping by with a Copy Paste note from the bottom of my heart. I am sorry, it's not like me, to walk away, as if nothing. Truly, I appreciate every winning poem, and HM. LOVE LINDA
