Quiescence Beauty
Lay your head on
The compassion of your pillow
My beautiful one
Slumber away your troubles
Dream of places beyond your reach
Paradise
Heaven
Ecstasy
Rapture
Bliss
Delight
For when you awaken actuality of life’s
Existence will be the pillow
You slumber on
The bed upon which holds
Your body so inviting
A sarcophagus
You’ll open your eyes to
Gaze into the eyes of judgment
Sleeping beauty slept for
A thousand years
As thousands years to a day
My precious one so at peace
Fairies and sugar plumbs
Dance as you sleep
Angel’s wings brush sweetly
Against the softness of your cheeks
Your smile is serene
Visions of tranquility
Wrap you in its cocoon
Protecting you from wicked
Thoughts trying to arouse
You from the mystical world you’ve
Created
Awaken, awaken, my seraph
Sleep no more
