Merciful Wish

One day an angel came down to me
she asked for what would my one wish be?
i thought for only a moments time
when my thoughts began to chime
I looked at that angel with unwaivering eyes
that beautiful girl descended from the skies

To fall asleep eternally
that is what my wish would be
to dream forever within the stars
rid of all emotional scars

to dance freely upon the clouds
whilst death's veil enshrouds
gone are all my fears and pain
washed away by the welcoming rain

I wonder who would really care
if i slept forever in that wooden lair
maybe i can think of one
then again, it could be none

I told the angel my souls command
my only wish, ever so grand
she let out what seemed a saddened sigh
as she faded back into the sky
so asleep i fell eternally
glad my wish could finally be...
