Literature Text

Hush little baby,
Don’t say a word.
The lines of good and sin
Are blurred.

Close your eyes,
And say goodnight.
Maybe someday
You’ll find your light.

Have sweet dreams,
My dear young love.
The innocence
You’re barren of.

Hush little baby,
Rest your head.
Your shining hope
Is not yet dead.
I decided to try something a little out of my comfort zone from my usual free-verse poetry, so I went with a rhyming scheme, which is definitely something I don't do very often. ^^;
Feedback is greatly appreciated~ :)
