Chant of Name
I was sleeping.
It was like a taste of hell!
My ears had gone numb!
Still, I could sense the fear of hearing...
When I felt someone was calling my name,
From within me
The voice, mixed with pain, was asking for my help...
Let me out, let me out...
As if it were trying to tell me this,
just calling out my name and speaking nothing else.
It seemed familiar—yes, a familiar voice, I guess...
But I couldn't exactly trace who it was.
Yes, I could listen to the repeated chants of my name, but unfortunately, I couldn't find anything else.
It was as if a lot of things were understood.
Without being consigned to flames...
