Even as my house burns away,
I don't cry out for your help.
Because you are too dear to me
And I don't want you to burn.

Houses build of secure wax,
Now lying in a molten white rot.
I will take this heat, my friend
Because I don't want you to burn.

  1. Loyalty is probably one of the most valuable qualities a person can have. To me at least. I really liked this poem, Subhashish. :)
