Fast asleep you fade away
Soft breathing , slight snores
But I'm laying next to you
Wide awake
Peaceful. Sleep. Is not her fate
She waits till night
To wonder why
She's been delt this hand
Mellow cries , deepened trauma
The colorless water drips down her face
You shall not wake
She does not wish to hurt you
Your comfort would be nice
A soft embrace
But she does not wish to sacrifice
Your sleep ; Your wellbeing
So she's lying next to you
Lifelessly Awake
