Analysis of Meant To Dwell
Beneath the skin,
A soul meant to dwell,
Living above the flame,
The flames of hell,
Alone sits sin,
Raptures magic,
Where treasures sparkle,
Decorated tragic,
Rest the head,
Dry those tears,
Heartless to emotion,
And all it fears,
Frozen beyond ice,
Numb rather than feel,
When theres no hurt,
Theres nothing to heal,
While kindness laughs,
And time never waits,
The mind tortured,
With constant debates,
Beneath the skin,
A soul meant to dwell,
Living above the flame,
The flames........of hell.............................BAD-Mc..<3
