Dream Catcher

Rest awhile, 
the day is at its end and you feel broken,
and as tomorrow too seems hopeless,
I will open up my arms to hold you,
so close your eyes,
pillow me,
I'll be your dreamless slumber,

I'll revise your revile,
spill your secrets to the moonlight,
kiss goodnight the tears worth while, 
and carry you through dawn,
but if you tomorrow too should crumble,
do so within my arms,
so you don't lose a piece of who you are,
then close your eyes, 
pillow me,
I'll be your dreamless slumber

Thank you, Wen. I still don't have enough. I wish I had so many more, but I'm getting there, albeit slowly.
