Analysis of Oh! divine one



My heart is swarming
with incomplete dreams
and some desires
with sense of loneliness
and some whims
“oh! divine one”
watching! from heaven
is this a dream or hallucination?
and if its real, then let me decay
oh! my friend and my savior
bless me with light
or raise me to you,
as I don’t want to live
with this devouring darkness...
