Put me back to sleep

Put me back to sleep, 

I am far too tired to stay awake,

The rain pounding on the glass,

Has kept me awake all night,

The rhythmic beat of it,

Scared me in its unending storm,

A constant reminder,

One day I will wake up,

And my world will be gone,

And the only one left to greet the rising sun,

Will be a girl who does not know,

And is still wondering what it means to live,

She worries that it will hurt to die,

So she keeps her friends close,

And her heart trapped in her chest,

Because you never know what is going to last,

And what is going to be lost,

Or who is going to leave you behind,

Life is so hard, and the price is too great,

A breathe is waisted with every hesitate,

But is a word of worth if it does not ring,

And when a tear is just a tear

What does sadness even mean,

And when a girl lies trapped in bed,

With too many thoughts inside her head,

And she tries to pray,

But falls asleep before a voice answers,

And she never wakes up,

And she never remembers,

The gentle arms, and a gentle kiss,

Because the unloved are just ones who forgot they were loved,

And the happiest have weathered the hardest storms,

But the safest are the ones who never fight,

And a life is only alive when it dies.
