Notes About The Poem

Save This Soul

Save this soul from being burned,
whenever your eyes glare at me.
Take me out from this room,
where fire melts my whole body.

Bring my soul somewhere else,
where I can lay down in serenity.
Save me from this sullen pain,
cure this wound in my flesh.

Please send my soul into bliss,
For I don't know where to turn.
I'm a lost soul finding my way,
Send me home where I can rest.

In peaceful night ,in a quiet place.
Save my soul from being blazed.
Shield me in your arms,then promise.
You wouldn't  leave 'til we meet the sunset.

What a marvelous read from a blessed paged built on lines constructed with the lyrics of the skies and words well supported by dynamic foamy clouds. Message well expressed! No doubt an absolute 7##.
