Lay Me To Sleep

Softly lay me down to sleep
An infant secured with peace
Enveloped within arms so deep
Distress came to silent ease

Invade my lone aching heart
Soldier in violent vigorous rush
Cold tears from eyes depart
Swift bullets in cosmic gush

Lend me your fervent touch
Lovers wrapped in tight embrace
Crisp kisses in a sturdy clutch
Slowly inhale the bestowed grace

Subside the pain I never wept
Intensified waves in ocean drown
Let my tears end in constant cease
Kiss away within my soul the frown

Softly lay me down to sleep
Your lover secured with peace
Enveloped within arms so deep
Loneliness came to lasting ease
