Home Alone Again

Home alone again
Respite for a while
Rest is but a moment
Whole world in denial
The pain the hand inflicts
May heal with time
Mild in contrast
To the anguished mind
Cover of darkness
Angels cry
Sing the baby’s lullaby
Sleep sweet baby on the breast
Motherly instinct know
Sleep to wake again
As angel with a bow
Fierce and mighty protector
For the children without a voice
The victory resounds in beautiful chorus
Where never a hand is raised
To brandish power or cause pain
To a little one who should be praised
Sleep sweet baby once again
Now the day is here
For you to wake again
And live without fear
