3rd in the 'Calling All Poets 2007' competition
Sing me to sleep where the bullets fall,
Help me forget the war and all.
Sing me to sleep where the bombs explode
And all through the land bodies erode.
Far, far away I long to be
Watching and praying silently.
Think of me crouching where the worms creep,
Waiting for someone to sing me to sleep.
