Sing me a lullaby, to sustain
That one of brighter tomorrows
Lift me up from this dreadful pain
Help relieve me from my sorrows
In your sweet heart, tender and mild
Embrace me in your guiding light
Comforting your lost little child
Hush those awful thoughts tonight
Sing me a lullaby, one reborn
A verse filled with inspiration
Remove from my flesh that vile thorn
Heal me from my desolation
Consoling all those hurtful fears
From the grief, that’s taken its toll
Heal me now from those burning tears
And despair in my vacant soul
Sing me a lullaby, those sweet songs
Like I heard when I was still small
Easing the sting from wicked wrongs
Before the silence becomes us all
Singing those words, I need to hear
Cradle me closely while I cry
Because right now I need you near
Before all hope does say goodbye

Carol, I am sorry for all the pain you are enduring right now. It seems things have been much harder the last couple of months for obvious reasons, but I hope that all of this writing is helping you heal in some way and know that I am here if you need anything I may be able to offer to help.
All my love,
Kimberly G.
