Sing me a song in soft words
of just you and me together.
Whisper those sweet nothings
to lull me to sleep and soften
my nightmares because
tonight that is exactly the
kind of lullaby I need.
Hold me close to your
heart  and let me listen
to the slow and steady
beat of your rhythm.  
Breath out the sound
of the ocean to crash
with my swirling mind.
Send me to sleep with
the rustle in the sheets
as you move to lay by
my side, for the morning
the night will be over and
all your songs will be sung
yet I will  have heard your
lullaby. Soft, sweet and slow
and if I could choose I'd lie
listening to it forever.
