Beautiful Sleep

Sleep, sleep little darling.
Nothing can harm you.
Your on top of the world,
On top of the world.
Fall back, into the seas of your dreams,
And don’t let the sounds of the ignorant
Wake you from your beautiful sleep.
Sleep, sleep.
Dream of the next day to come,
Dream of the only one,
For you.
I won’t let anything hurt you,
I will not close my eyes,
You are so beautiful,
When your sleeping tonight.
Sleeping so tight.
Sleeping alright.
Sleeping.
On top of the world,
How does it feel?
When your floating above,
All the hate that is here?
Sleep,
Close your eyes,
Fall into,
The most glorious sleep of your life.
Sleep darling,
Sleep tonight.

    This is a beautiful write, and a very enjoyable read.
    As others have said it flows well, and is like a lullaby a nurturing mother would sing to her children. Well written.
    Thanks for entering and good luck!

    Good

    Watching the one you love sleep. Whether it's your spouse or a child they look so peaceful. I remember my husband many nights sitting in his chair when he couldn't sleep watching over me. I felt safe. Very beaautiful write

    excellent

    This is stunning. I can almost create a tune to be sung with it. It is so peaceful and there seems to be such love and nuture in the words. Does this poem possibly relate to the eternal sleep? Or am I interpreting this differently to what you wanted to say?

    This has a gentle flow that is remniscient of a lullabye. I am not too sure of some of the punctuations, but that may be more personal preferneces than any thing else. Best of luck in this and all of your endeavors. Hetohke'e
