She lies there sleeping so content. All warm and snuggled in her bed. Shes small but safe. Her blanky protecting her from harm. From the real world. A place so big that it's easy to get lost. Keep sleeping oh sweet child that you may never know pain. Live in dream land for there you are free. I fear for when you wake and are forced to stare life in the face. I'm sorry for the hurt that will come. If I could protect you from it, I would.

For my baby sister
She lies there sleeping so content. All warm and snuggled in her bed. Shes small but safe. Her blanky protecting her from harm. From the real world. A place so big that it's easy to get lost. Keep sleeping oh sweet child that you may never know pain. Live in dream land for there you are free. I fear for when you wake and are forced to stare life in the face. I'm sorry for the hurt that will come. If I could protect you from it, I would.
