Sleeping Angel

Sleeping Angel

Angel between the sheet
She's asleep
And I don't want to wake her
She's in my bed
An angel between my sheets
It's not something I'd thought I'd see
I've been watching her all night
Asleep, soundly, peacefully
She lies so still
I wonder what she dreams about
The sweet angel, lying my bed
I find it strange, that angel between the sheets
But she's only sleeping
I don't know how she got there
I met her down by the graves
I showed her kindness
And now she's between my sheets
I think maybe she just wanted to sleep
She looks so perfect there
I don't know how she does it
Something is drawing me to watch her sleep
I'll sit here 'til she wakes.
