Lord Take Me To Heaven Don'T Be So Mean

Like a deer caught in spotlight by tip of the antler she froze when she saw the upcoming train with a slow motion move like an Austrian landler she ran from the danger, her only domain The night was so frozen it held every tear unable to move she just sat on the rail her heart was a pumping the moon was a smear as she wiped out the gravel and pulled out the nail The stars were now shining but she couldn't see the beauty of sky the fabric of green for night was a falling, she made one last plea Lord take me to heaven, don't be so mean.

Thank you Vijay, many young people these days are not equipped for the hardships. Often they give up,
