Sleeping Child

sleeping child what do your dreams hold the silence can be so cold.Sleeping child one day
everything will become real your innocence life will soon steal.Soon pain will be all that you
feel.The tears will surround stealing away your perfect youth.All the questions in your mind
unanswered with no proof.Monsters tear away the aspirations robbing them out from your
hands.You will soon drift away into mysterious foreign lands.Little girl don't fall to the angels
their voices ever so faint there unpolished images ever so quaint.Let no one tell you no.On 
this journey with so many miles left to go.Whether rock star,queen,or doctor you may be.
Let not this world deter you for nothing binds you and you are still forever free.
