sing her to sleep



sing her to sleep

she’s crying

her chest is caving in…



sing her to sleep

her mind slowly dying

fighting, striving, giving in



sing her to sleep

one last note

a suicidal lullaby



sing her to sleep

humming hope

which rope will she try?



sing her to sleep

darkness fades

the peace eases in



sing her to sleep

sorrow evades

come Jesus again

This is a very powerful poem Naomi...
You did a good job, nad I understand what it feels like to be held by Jesus..it's amazing isn't it? I think people feel it in different ways, but I also believe that God holds each of us, and is just waiting for us to realize that.
