Lay Me Down To Sleep

[soulfir3]

Dreaming comes in the early flicker of morning,
the speckled light teases lightly at my plight
my mind snatches at what remains of the dark
fading from what's left of visible reality
Before I sink into oblivion

There you are...
waiting, with outstretched arms
Healing the hurt, fighting nightmares rebirth
unconscious of myself clinging to stars
Your eyes find mine, blank and unseeing
yet you are my guiding light -

Sanction I find with you
no longer I need to fight
Death comes to me , kisses my cheek
I become fitful within my sleep
your arms gather me closely,
As I become weak

Dreaming comes to my mind,
but I can't find what I hope to see
I can feel you rocking me, in silent patience
together we travel empty space
Counting the sands of time
as I fall into fitful dreams

*CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!*

Surrender my heart too the cool wind of night,
let it cradle away the hurts and deception
No longer can I dream of you -
without the fear and hatred fueled by
Your touch leaching into my veins, and
by the time the rays if the sun have touched me,
The cold frost of winter will already have
invaded and what were the last parting strands of
Warmth in the stone you call a heart
