I'm fighting back my tears



Like I've been doing for all these years



I swear I never knew



What they did to you



If I had known



We could have flown



Away from this place



A smile might finally light your face



We can do this together



We'll be together forever



I'll protect you every day



Remember, no matter what they say



You are special to me


Sleep, little sister, sleep

I wrote this for an RP I'm in with Honor-the big sister finds out the little one is being abused, so she sings this lullaby to help her sleep.

There's clear emotion in the tone and a nice flow. A good piece. I wish I could hear it being sung.   Thank you for checking out my work.
