You’re my Salve and Balm
Walid Boureghda
Walid Boureghda
The heart is bleeding words that I find it hard to unveil. Thoughts are
squeezing up my mind; they have left a myriad of scars in every corner
of both my heart and soul. You are the only one in this life, dear, who
can cleanse my wounds and be such a balsam salving my sighs. So please,
darling, come to me; my yearning for our romantic tryst is killing me
softly – Only you can bring me back from the edge of death.
