Now I lay me down to sleep..
I can not hide the tears I weep.
As long loved dreams, they pass me by,
I bury my head in the pillow and cry.
The journey was long, the stride was hard. The end I cannot see.
But my heart it moans and groans for the chance, the chance to be set free.
My eyes have been blinded, my feet mislead.
I hold no hope for the path I tread.
I drift into a solemn, sweet dream,
Where every sound or bump drowns out my screams.
The rumble, the rattle on all the floors.
The BOOM, BOOM, BOOM on all my doors.
I lay deep in my thoughts hardly warm.
My heartbeat slows for the final storm.
If I shall die before I wake.
My soul drifts to the ground as if by mistake.

I like it! That was a great way to incorporate the "innocent" prayer into a rather dark work of art. My fave lines are "my eyes have been blinded, my feet mislead/I hold no hope for the path I tread" Great Job! 5/5
