a lullaby..not bella's but aisha's..

Aisha wants to say goodnight to the world.

And the world replies, "Half of me is day and I shall not slumber."

Aisha then says goodnight to the moon.

And the moon says, "I am always here, eyes wide open."

Aisha then bids goodnight to her tired soul.

It then whispers.

"Aisha, when your eyes doth shut, do you know the places you visit?"

"You approach Mom in her deep rest asking for forgiveness for sins past."

"Your soul then returns to be right by your children's side, asking them to never forget the moments when only innocence envelops the three of you, not anger, fear or emptiness."

"You then inch ever so slowly to him, wondering how lonely he feels, at the same time, yearning to make it all go away because you can't stand to worry if a kin is dying or hurting."

"And then you waltz to the Promised Land, still not daring to walk past his borders."

"But last of all, before you finally slumber, you lie prostrate, in the Light of Him, and you sob a plea for Him to never ever leave you ever again."
