LULLABY

Seeking to be

Blinded by the light

But here in the dim

murky shadows

We will find our respite.

Glimmering moments pass

In the sun's golden rays

But wrapped up in darkness

Is the end of each day.

Our eyes rest

Our minds rest

All motion stills

To prepare us gently

For the next day's thrills.

If we look at night

As the embrace of a cocoon

Our fears of the unknown

Will be gone so soon.

Lay down your head

Let your eyelids fall

Cover up in bed

Let go of it all.

When the sun sets

And we turn down the lights

Here in the dim

Murky shadows

We will find our respite.
