As you sleep you look so innocent, you look like such a sweet thing. <br />You tempt me with your softened features, your slow even breath. <br />I can almost not remember the cruel words that stung me so. <br />They are creeping into the back of my mind. <br />You look like such a sweet thing, so gentle and kind. <br />Does the unconcious really hide whats inside? <br />How can I forget all of those horrible things, all of those days bleeding and in pain. <br />Oh my sweet thing, its like night and day. <br />But I will help you, I will take away that evil side that beats and batters me, that evil person lingering within you. <br />I place the soft feathery comfort over you, and hold you close to my breast. <br />Do not fight me sweet thing, Let yourself slip into the abyss of never ending slumber. <br />My soul is somehow free, as I can see that you will be my sweet thing for eternity.<br /><br />Asura DeWinters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sweet-thing/
