I wish our problems and stresses
Would leave like they do when you sleep
You look the happiest right after
You doze off counting sweet sheep

I wish I could take away all the pain I cause you
And the anger the world makes you feel
Perhaps one morning you will wake up
Open your eyes to a world more ideal

Til that day I watch your wonderful slumber
Celebrate the calm minutes before dawn
These moments are bittersweet because I know
When the sun rises that peace will be gone
I'm sorry we have been fighting lately. I love you so much and I really am trying. I wish I was everything you need me to be.

— The End —
