The Oasis

You are my shelter from the scorching heat. 
You pacify the surge of my heartbeat. 
You quench my drought and douse my dryness. 
You are my shade from the blazing brightness. 

When my soul is so tired and weary, 
you pour down your caress to quell my agony
like a pair of hands extending down from heaven, 
that pulls me to crest unto a safe haven.
