Description
Words sung softly into my earTrying to erase the pain of fear
This lullaby can't sooth tonight
Against this crippling kryptonite
My body feels hollowed out
Fear silencing the need to shout
My soul disabled from feeling now
Pleas to the heavens, unconditional vow
For the arms around me never to depart
To feel them with me, to revive my heart
For the life that is lost to thee above
Is numbing to those who held their love
I pray no more will you take from me
I will be grateful to you eternally
The lullaby has come to an end
The lyrics I couldn't comprehend
For anaesthesia had taken its toll
Spreading warmth, making me whole
You carry the weight now upon your wings
With it you rain down endless blessings
So though the pain still rests within
My eyelids close and peace sets in

I've never been able to rhyme throughout the poem, so I've got to say that you have quite the talent.

It is so rare to see someone fully rhyming and doing it well. You, good Miss, have achieved this. My compliments.

You're very welcome. It's okay to take pride in your work lol. I think the reason it's easier to rhyme is because it provides a flow that helps when reading.
