I look upon your sleeping figure,
Your face so innocent and pure.
Your thoughts,
Your mind in another world.
Inhale, exhale, inhale,
Your steady breathing is that of a lullaby.
You are oblivious of your surroundings,
You are far off in a wonderful dream.
I shall not wake you,
You are at peace for the time being.
Why would I want to
corrupt your own little world?
War rages on around you.
I will protect you, sleeping one.
