Even when I want to fall over on myself
You hold me up
Not literally, to be my crutch
But in my heart
To help as much
And more
Or just
As when our skin
Once really touched

Even beat
At the end of each day
My heart stays strong to repeat
Your name with every
Drop of life it greets

Upon waking the only
Requirement I find
Is to remember I've known you
And the day falls into line
The calendar shines, sweet life!
Though all of night was
Nostalgia for your eyes
When you looked at me long
And I realized; "Love"
But you moved on as
Life for you is young
And for me?
I'll still grow
Still be free
As when from heaven above
A baby slips into the world
And exclaims with a cry;
"Beautiful life!... but why?"
