My Saviour

I felt my blood go cold,
I felt my heart go weak,
I felt my feet go limp,
I felt my head go numb.

I knew I was nearing the end,
I knew my life was almost over,
I had no reason to draw breath,
My heart had no reason to beat.

I walked around as a corpse,
I was dead yet was not dying,
My heart had stopped beating,
Yet my body refusing to die off.

My tired eyes looked for a reason,
Looked for a reason to draw breath,
I needed a reason to prevent death,
I came to you looking for that reason.

You saw the pain deep in my eyes,
You felt my cold heart shuddering,
You took grasp of my lifeless hands,
You embraced me with your warmth.

You touched me and I felt it,
As if god breathed life in me,
As he did to gift life unto all,
You granted me breath again.

You held me close and I felt it,
I felt my heart flutter in ecstasy,
It was once struggling to beat,
You granted me my life again.

You pulled me from my lifeless knees,
Instilled me with one thing I needed,
I came to you for a reason to breathe,
I found the reason in your embrace.
