FOR MY LOVE
We met at a time when I was at loose ends
My life a study in quiet desperation
You made me see the purpose of living
A life sometimes misspent
You showed me that love
Even as ephemeral as ours
Was worth living for
The purpose of our lives
May not be clear to us always
But should there be a reason
For everything?
The logic of being illogical
Is sometimes more illuminating
Than whatever rationale for being
And what we perceive as life or death
Should not be a deterrent
To live life fully
Out of millions of people you found me
You showed me--guided me and loved me
You took away some of my pain
And though I may not have long to give you
The time I have I'll share with you
Until that too is gone
But darling I want you to know
I always cared, and loved you
To the best of my ability
I never knew anyone
With your love,your humour
Your caring and compassion
We learned from each other
To give and also take
My love you'll always be
My special friend and companion
And my forever love
