Favorite Quote:
You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should've behaved better. -Anne Lamott, from Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life.


Angel born smile slips away
To forever sleep in grace
Leave names to love forever but what's in a name
When farewell is too much to say
Through the tears falling from the face
Of those who will forever cherish the days

Please, sleep in peace
As your dream bound voice will sing the melody
Unfit for tears but not for me
Sweeter the dreams, bitter the day
At the dawn when I wake up, alone

All the tears shed at the breaking of dawn
Each one for beauty for the loved ones now gone
They come to comfort me through the lonesome of the night
Until the day they bring me into the light

Please, sleep in peace
As your dream bound voice will sing the melody
Unfit for tears but not for me
Sweeter the dreams, bitter the day
At the dawn when I wake up, alone

I feel your love over the distance
Let no mountain keep us apart
let our love carry us together
Once a sight but now in my heart
You're the stars in my sky
My everything my angels sigh

Please sleep in peace
Please sleep in peace
Please sleep in peace
Sweeter the dreams
Remember the days
Til the dawn when I wake up, alone
