i'm embers you're fire
in olden days i was like you
i have lived your flames
-----
when you need to weep
but feel you must remain strong
don't forget i'm here
-----
all my strength is gone
yet i find some more to share
with others in need
-----
you might not know it
an old warrior loves you
wishes you knew peace
-----
words written for you
i call them poems perhaps
but they're really hugs
-----
come and rest with me
share pains of body and mind
we'll weep together
-----
i've nothing to give
and yet i would give my all
to make her feel loved
-----
i won't ask or tell
do only what you want to
but do it with love
-----
she thought she hurt me
but it was friends being friends
hearing and caring
-----
seems she seldom smiles
i wish that i or someone
curved her lips upward
Such beautiful words, Donovan. I know you have and are giving your all to her. God bless you. How about that book of poems? It's worth it to ask Sue.
