Protected And Safe.. Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

If you and I were a ghost and a boy,
And you jump from the holes of joy,
To tickle me to enter to be your envoy,
I would say NO to you with no time of shy.

If you and I were a ghost and a boy,
And I run to my room while you chase,
You laugh as the cloud, I am not scared,
I would befriend you to change you to be good soul.

I would let you to laugh the most as you are naked,
Having no legs and the flesh, while I look for your hands,
You laugh with your friends and I am alone,
Building the protecting wall around my soul.
