Love Poem: Awakened

Awakened

The night we first met 
I whispered to my pillow  
that I felt alive;

Swaying on a star 
a prayer was said for you
hoping to be heard ;

Passionate coma
lingering in the remains,
despite my silence;

No longer faded
a shadow just existing,
my heart exploded;

Quiet but I hope you know,
you awakened everything.
