Rescue Me

Oh heart, rescue me.
Let your beat
Be the rhythm of life.

And when I speak,
Let not cold currents,
deceit, reign supreme.

But let me remember
There is something more
Than left, right, middle.

Something more beautiful
Than what I might scheme,
Or plan

Oh heart please
give me your warmth
Return it onto my life

Hi raj

thank you, it is a reaction to the physical/mechanical trend of the west.

Thanks Tyro

for helping me read the subtext...by physical/mechanical do you mean material lacking a spiritual touch?

Hello dear tyro

an adorable call/prayer. I thought this is all that we need when our hearts go phlegmatic in this life .
If only we can do a reset and have a new start
Thank you for sharing this halcyon prayer.
