Fear, Sleep Away

Sleep away your fears

My darling. 

Let your brain rest free:

Light's dimming. 

Forget that you care,

Darling, smile.

Forget the nightmare

For awhile.

Sleep; let your eyes dry.

Time to rest.

Tell your pain to fly.

Just forget.

Darling, sleep is calling ~

Close your eyes.

Sleep is comforting ~

Restful lies. 

For a night it's OK.

Sleep and smile.

'Til the morning day

Comes to strike.

~ KAL

I used to write a lot of poetry. I rarely share of any of it, as it tends to be personal. But this I felt like sharing ;) Sometimes you are just so tired of life, and remembering, that all you want to do is sleep. 

But it can be hard to sleep when the world feels dark :) And that's when you just have to remind yourself how to forget. 

I hope you enjoy this poem I wrote this summer! It says I won first place at a county fair... but I didn't have any competition. Prize was like $3? I think ;D 

I eventually plan to turn this into a song, with one of my friend's help. We'll see if that ever happens ;p
