Sleep Well
Sleep well tired soul, goodnight
You don't need to hug yourself tight
You're now free from the pain
No need to bite your lips whenever it rains.
You can rest from all the hate
There was too much on your plate.
Go to a place you will be safe
You don't need to live like a waif.
Don't look back, leave without guilt
Your decision is what the society built.
You surely uttered a cry for help
Before you decided to think about yourself.
