let me be your lullaby

Close your eyes and listen to these words, let them become your lullaby as your heart rate slows, and your heaving chest sinks and climbs as your breath slows and a whisper of serenity escapes your lips.

Lay your head upon my chest, use it as a pillow, let me hold you tightly and feel your heart rate slow the deep thumping of my own. 


Let me find peace with you in my arms. 

Let me sing you to sleep, let these words be your lullaby.

Listen close and listen hard. These are words crafted for you only. Close your eyes and breath so slow. Let me be yours and surrender your soul to me. Lay peacefully in my arms as I take up a sword and a shield. Let me defend you from the demons that haunt your dreams. Let me watch over you as you rest, let me be the one you open your eyes to. Let me bathe you in kisses from the moment you wake up until you come to lay your head on my chest again, when another precious day with you comes to a close. Let me hold you and protect you like my baby, be mine and love me. Let me be your lullaby.
