Sleep Fairy…

On the verge of giving up,
Not knowing what to do.
Looking at the dark sky,
I wish it turned blue.
I see everyone sleeping,
In the gentle moon light.
I feel I am the only soul,
Left awake in this dark night.
My eyes glittered to see,
A black butterfly fluttering from the sky.
Like an angel wrapped me in wings,
And whispered in my ears to smile.
She sang me a lullaby under the night deep,
Slowly and quietly I drifted to the arms of sleep…
