Wow, it's been almost two years since I was last posting on this site. But I'm back with a new name (used to be constantyne), and a new philosophy to my writing, I think. Anyway, here's something I've had written since the beginning of the month. It's short, sweet and simple, a lullaby of sorts. I know it needs a little work, but let me know...

Here it is.

Sleep Darling (Everything's Going to Be Fine)

Sleep my darling, you will not be in harm
I'll protect you and keep you safe it my arms
Rest your head and close your eyes
Everything is going to be fine

Sleep my darling, I'll be here for you
Golden slumbers are all that's waiting for you
Rest your head and close your eyes
Everything is going to be fine

Sleep my darling, you have nothing to fear
No more nightmares, this song is all that you'll hear
So rest your head and close your eyes
Everything is going to be fine

Maybe a little repetitious...
I may have a recording posted soon. Just let me know what you think.

And the fire from within burns undying!

I liked it.wasn,t amazing but it was nice 7/10. I recommend changing fine to alright or just fine becuase it has better flow to it. that like sounded kinda disconected when i tried to sing it. also the same problems happens with the golden slumbers like, it doesnt sound quiet right when you sing it. would love to hear it how it was supposed to be. overall good just needs some polish

here's the original and a suggested version.
