A short poem about night.
you left me here to sleep and lie, beneath the pale and peaceful sky.
the night has come it waves hello. The moon, it shoot's it's beams below.
The rats they leave thier place of rest, while bluebirds sleep inside thier nests.
i only wanted to take flight, but you clipped my wings, i just cant sleep...tonight.

How can you rest? how can you sleep? how can you bear those fear full dreams?
how many nights will it take, before my sun doth shadows break?
can you feel my helpless pain, are you engulfed in dreamy plains?
Awake I beg, and right this wrong, so I can sleep before the dawn

i wish tonight upon a star, I pray to God but he's to far.
the angels hear, oh wont they speak? or sing me songs to fall asleep?1
