You Are My Heart

You are my heart
the gentle and loving side of me
that the pain of the world has not erased

You came to me
and gifted me with your unquestioning
love
and restored my belief

God had sent me an angel
to lie beside me when the lonely darkness
kept me from sleep

Each day with you
was new delight , a little laughter,
and enchantment in my life

You are my heart
and I watched you grow frail and old
your eyes still bright

You came to me
and told me that soon I must be strong
that you must return

God sent me an angel
to protect and love me when I was alone
and now she is home

Each day with you
was my treasure while on earth
I love you

For the love of my life,
I will miss you
