Peacefully, you sleep,
Innocent, carefree,
Dreaming,
You sigh, softly,
You sleep, peacefully.

The days fly by,
Life’s stresses pile on,
A deadline here,
More stratagems there,
I rush to face them all,
You grow up,
As the days fly by.

Sometimes I get annoyed,
At my disrupted focus,
At all the things I may not have done anyway,
But now have a reason to blame,
But then I watch you sleep,
I kiss your forehead,
I bid you a good night, silently,
I remember, that I forgot,
That I got annoyed.
