Sleeping Child

by Paralyzed

The sweetest breath I've ever felt,
Whispers on my cheek,
The faint perfume of life in bloom,
Begs me not to speak.

Little child of the sun,
I love to watch you sleep,
My tiny star, it's so bizarre,
So happy, yet I weep.

A single tear, so full of hope,
I'll do my very best,
To keep you warm, through sun or storm,
No matter what the quest.

Sleeping child, melting heart,
My angel here on earth,
I'll always show and hope you know,
To me, how much you're worth.
