Poetry

I came to you
and you were in every thought,
were right next to me through all of the dark nights,
did walk with me when the first roses started flowering.
 
I came to you
with everything that I am
and there was something more than just knowledge
when I could hide no opinion or desire.
 
I came to you
and you were loving and full of hope
when you started to walk through my life and dreams
and still are here in my first days of old age.
 
I came to you
and did trust you,
did cling to you like a drowning person
and although the last days of my life is turning over
 
I do know how deep your love is.
