Yeah, I've already reviewed this one. This is just a reply to your review because my address book isn't working and I'm lazy: Hehehe, yeah I noticed that when I was reading it earlier today and was hoping nobody would notice! You are too SMART! Thank you. Its nice to hear from you again. ^_^

Hey Ares! Exams over... ah...
Onto reading...
1.) "Searching for haven" -- Do you really mean "haven"? Or "heaven"? Because haven isn't used quite right, if that's what you mean.
2.) "Seeming there's nowhere dryer found." -- Drier. Unless you're using a washer ans dryer, that is! :)
3.) "Dare pray for help that is heaven sent? / Or I'm alone don't know where he went." -- These lines don't flow well, and they're kind of confusing.
4.) "Searching for haven..." -- Hm... Guess you DID mean "haven". Well, please make it "a haven" or use the phrase "safe haven", because that makes more sense. Otherwise it's like saying, "Searching for house", which doesn't work right. Of course, it's a song, so you can get away with it there, but it's not really proper grammar.
5.) The first stanza ALL rhymes, but the third only rhymes 1 with 2 and 3 with 4. Be consistant!
6.) "But my arms slashed by wire my blood unsound." -- Huh? What do the arms and the blood have to do with each other, here? I'm confused! Perhaps merely adding punctuation will help...
7.) "Away from my sires land to which I'm bound." -- sire's.

Not very fond of this one, in all honesty. It might just be the subject, which isn't really my thing. But also, your rhythm and word choice doesn't "feel" as good as it did in a few of your others. Read it aloud a few more times, and see what you think.
Sorry to be so critical!! Take care,
Ruatha

i like it and a good use of vocabulary but in the first stanza all the lines rhyme and then the others dont, its just 2 lines that rhyme, perhaps you cud improve on tht. ofcourse u aint gone soft!
