Strongest Words

Lay me down, so I can rest my thoughts.
Untie my arms, so I can hold you tight.
Tuck me in, so that I can sleep.
And kiss me softly, so that I may breath.


Lay down my body,
Now my thoughts can rest.
My soul is now free,
And my heart not depresses.

Give me a hug,
And kiss me goodbye.
So now at peace,
My spirit can lie.


~Written in mid-2003 when I was fourteen/fifteen.
