This is a poem which I submitted for the love poem contest organized by Singapore’s Writer’s Festival and Timbre Music Academy; my poem didn’t get shortlisted but hey… I still love it.
Till You Fall Asleep
Every night
I hold your hands
Every night
Sweet dreams I send
Every night
I’ll sing to you
Every night
I’ll pray for you
For you to sleep
But you can’t, you don’t
You hardly fall asleep
You scratch, you cry
You barely can sleep
Till you fall asleep
I will say the same prayer
Till you fall asleep
I will sing the same songs
Till you fall asleep
I will hold your hands
Till I fall asleep
I will do all that I can
With a picture of my girl sleeping that I absolutely love!
