Hold her tight
Sing her to sleep
Play with her hair
Love her deep
She's built a castle made of books around everything she loves
Hoping that no one can disarm her and dismantle everything she keeps,
Close to her heart.
She sings lullabies of a broken heart
The words she keeps no longer form,
A cohesive sentence that could help set her free.
She's on her own again,
With demons that hug her to sleep
You've lost a diamond,
In search for sheep
This is what it has come up to;
Always neglecting those that want us for keeps and
Going after everyone who has agendas,
That aren't so clear
We're tortured in the process of hazy love,
Unclear and untrue,
Unwilling, unmoved
Hold her tight
Sing her to sleep
Make sure, you give her lots of love,
Lots she can keep
Let her know,
That being too much was never a curse,
But a blessing in disguise and one you aim to upheave
A little rhyme here and there
