IN YOU MY SECRETS DWELL,
SILENT WITH HOPES SWELL.
ON YOU I SLEEP VERY WELL,
YET MANY A NIGHT 'R HELL.
I WROTE ON YOU MY HOPES,
TOSSING AS CLOWN ON ROPES.
NOBODY WITHOUT YOU COPES,
WITH LIFE'S ACHES 'N SLOPES.
YOU'RE CLOSEST TO MY HEAD,
CLAIRVOYANT MY HEART READ.
MY LIFE EVENTS IN YOU I HID,
UNITED AS ONE OVER ONE BED.
SHARING WITH YOU MY SORROWS,
MY TEARS BY GRIEF ARE HARROWED.
YOUR RELIEF MY BONES MARROWED,
AIMING ITS COMFORTING ARROWS.
I HUG YOU ALL NIGHT AND I CRY,
MY SOUL BARED FOR YOU TO PRY,
OVER YOU MY REST AND JOY LIE,
KISSING LIFE'S PAINS GOOD-BYE.
YOU GAVE ALWAYS GOOD COUNCIL,
YOU CARRIED MY BURDENS PARCEL,
YOU HELD ME CLOSE AS AN ANGEL,
SORTING MY DREAMS THAT TANGLE.
