    Very interesting poem, I enjoyed in it, overall I like it a lot and it is somehow refreshing but I have few suggestions.
    I think you need a more powerful title something like-Melody of melting kisses-
    You need some punctuation to make this poem look more effective.
    You used some words many times and this is short poem so you could use some more original words on some places.
    You should (this is just my personal opinion) change & into and cause (&) leaves negative impression.
    -shivering bodies
    Unfinished dreams-
    I honestly love this two lines but I think that it would be even more powerful like this:
    --shivering bodies equal Unfinished dreams--

    This is all just my opinion and I don't want to offend you if you disagree with me, I truly like this poem but I think that it could use some improvements.
    In first line you need one adjective to make it better.
    I've dreamed of a (you maybe need adjective here to make imagery more vivid, something like scarlet kiss) kiss under the rain.
    I personally think that you could use something more powerful than -love words- in third line.

    So practically I think that you could use this like a core of the piece and plus add it some changes. Like this:

    I've dreamed of a scarlet kiss under the rain,
    and I've always wanted to feel touch of rain drops on my skin,
    you hold me near and whisper those love words in my ears...
    --All wet and cold
    shivering bodies equal
    Unfinished dreams--
    You tell me you love me;
    you hug, you kiss me...
    -I am warm again-
    --The whole world stops!--
    -This is a dream- your words echo like a dagger,
    I push you away and scream:
    -Why can't you be real?-
    You kiss me again,
    kiss my pain and fear.
    ...Look for me,
    I am around you,
    I am here...
    Wake up from this dream!
    Run under the rain and find me,
    let our kiss be enliven
    let us taste how it really feels!

    ^I just thought that this is more intense like this but if you don't like it keep your version :]

    Keep writing, you're getting better with each piece, I enjoyed very much in this one.

    a lot of emotion and imagination has been put into this poem you can just tell :)!

    "Wake up from this dream!
    Run under the rain and find me,
    let our kiss kindle our hearts
    let us taste how it really feels!"
