Good Night Darling

Lift your head 
and look ahead

Theres so much in stall 
For all who are small 

Dont be afraid my dear 
because mummy will always be there 

I'll cuddle you all night 
When you cant handle the fight

Till you fall asleep 
and you no longer feel weak 

The way your blonde hair glistens in the dark 
I lie here and feel the beating of your heart 

Your fragile skin 
and determination 

gives me a new spark of life 
in the middle of the night 

I suddenly feel a new strength within 
to continue to be the best mum in all of creation
