Saviour Complex

Close your eyes and hold my hand

As you step into the quickening sand,

Wandering into your hazy dreams,

I slip in at the fragile seams,

Perusing thoughtfully at your hidden shame,

I whisper softly your sweet name,

You are now aware of my voice,

As it trembles air so moist,

Draining the fear and fury from your heart,

With song, poetry and works of art,

Your demons shall tremble in deepest fear,

Knowing that I am always here,

To look after you in your darkest hour

And be the ray of light in your darkest tower.

thank you very much for the encouragement Debbie, I was wondering could you help me place my form? I'm not sure if it's couplet or rhyme or free verse (well some poems differ) Thanks a lot!
