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.
