A Lullaby For You

When you've felt the day is done

And the images around you swirl as one.

Just lie close darling, you'll make it through

To the other side of dawn, I'll watch over you.



Have dreams of comfort and sweet caress

And feel as though you're full of rest.

You'll need not wonder what to do.

Just be gentle dear one, I'll watch over you.



May all your nights be as calm as this

Bringing you joy and peace, happiness and bliss.

Fear not the day that you're coming to.

Stay close precious one, I'll watch over you.

Who couldn't feel so much comfort from that poem? Words escape my mouth. You're words are filled with so much beauty.

I wrote something similar to this, but I didn't post it... Anyone who reads your critiques will be the only ones on this site to read it. ^_^ ::Let Me Sleep:: Let me sleep, my darling, let me sleep, Your hand in my hand will I keep. Let me sleep, my darling, through the night, So I can wake up, and you'll be alright. Let me sleep, my darling, let me sleep, Let your healing wings take their very first leap. Let me sleep, my darling, do your best, Because insomnia is contagious, and we all need our rest. In any case, I believe that this poem is beautifully written, and that you truly have a wonderful talent for poetry. Keep amazing me, Jeremy!
