You’re my Salve and Balm by Walid Boureghda

 You’re my Salve and Balm
  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.
