1. lullaby
After watching Frozen II early last year, I was actually inspired to try and write a lullaby for some of my own characters, so that's how this came about! This doesn't have a tune or anything, so I guess it might be more of a poem, but I did write it as a lullaby for my Ninjago fanfic series.
In the story, Evelyn Brookstone is the one who's written it, and she sings it to Cole and Lyla when they're younger. I wanted the lyrics to be meaningful, and also wanted it to be something that was important and special to Cole and Lyla, something that they'd carry with them for the rest of their lives and maybe even sing to their own children one day.
So yeah, that's the backstory behind this little lullaby! It was my first time attempting something like this, but I'm actually really happy with the way it turned out in the end, and I hope you enjoy it!

Close your eyes and sleep, my love
As the moon and stars shine up above
It's quiet now, and darkness falls
Upon the land, and a lone wolf calls
She sings her song for all to hear
Be they far, or be they near
But don't be afraid, just close your eyes
And know that in the morning, the sun shall rise
Even after the darkest night
It still will come, bringing hope and light
So don't be afraid, be still, and rest
The strength you gain will carry you through every test
You face tomorrow, and whatever trials the day will bring
You can still choose to be joyful, be kind, and sing
A song of hope, as together, we face the day
As long as I'm able, I'll guide you along the way
Though a day will come when you must walk the path set before you on your own
Know that whatever happens, you'll never be alone
So close your eyes and sleep, my darling dear
And know that though I'll not always be here
My love will guide you all the way
Until we meet again one day
