Shadowed Soul

A quiet place where silence begins and anger stops. Tombed in a clever little spot where only we can enter. A barrier between life and a huge hostile world. a place where pleasant memories linger and faces stay the same. Colors are much brighter and hearts are warm and kind. A shadowed soul is a rapid beat of many heartbeats. Pounding in rhythm one beat at a time. We can hear each heartbeat patter if we are silent. The beats are wonderful with amazing chime and windfall flight. Continuos patterns as if we are glued in space to a tranquil barrier. A dimension of our minds unblock the scissors that can cut us apart if we let them. But no we will not let them. I protect you with my life and catch you if you slip on the outer bounds of illness. I gaze at you with glory and a living soul through the eyes of hundreds. Let us stay shadowed as it is to protect you and keepsake your memory in a solemn vow that is mine and yours throughout the harmony of our souls.

1 st word, second sentence I think you want Entombed/put something in deep place: to put something in a place that is hidden or very deep. You did just what I always do too, I can seem to consistantly spell //continuous!// Gah! [beginning line 7] For your form I think narrative would be better. What you discribe is an amazing interpersonal experience if it came to you though a shamanic faith please list it on the bottom of the verse. I hope to read lots more of your work! Light & Love
