Sleep and Dream

by Kalikala Smith

Sleep
and Dream
Don't let the nightmares haunt you.
Sleep
and Dream
Drift away with smiles around you.
Sleepy eyes
Don't let the dark scare you.
It's only you who can make the black seem white.
Drift away with love around you
I just want you by my side.

Sleep
and Dream
Don't let the night surround you.
Sleep
and Dream
I'll always be beside you.
Sleepy eyes
I love you.
I'd never let the monsters in.
Sleepy eyes
I'll be with you
I need you by my side.
