Me, My Heart & Soul Poem by Asif Baloch

What is that smell
Something is burning
Melting and bursting
Deep inside me

My heart is hurting
Rising and falling
Trying and struggling
To beat happily again

There is sparking
Smoke is rising
Blurring and blinding
My sad lonely eyes

There is a shadow
Standing with halo
Whispering to my soul
Time to die, look into my eyes

Leave this rusty cage
It got nothing but rage
It’s on the tip of the edge
Once felled never to raise

I'm fighting, weeping and crying
Begging, cursing and hurting
With my heart to
Beat happily again

With my soul not to
Leave me behind
In this world of denial
Where I'm alone, lost and forsaken
