Oh my sleeping beauty, <br />I know beauty is internal not just skin deep, <br />I do not love you just for my lust, <br />But love gives rise to it as a must, <br /> <br />Tonight I want you to sleep, <br />So that tomorrow you can take that leap, <br />I am confident of your ability, <br />If you can save your sanity. <br /> <br />Sleep, deep, at peace, dream of me. <br /> <br />(June 11,2006)<br /><br />Amit Biswas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/967-lullaby/
