Michael Degenhardt Poet Quatrain

Everything

You give me light when darkness falls
You give me hope when all is lost
You give me strength when I am weak
You give me everything

You give me days when I give in
You give me you, a special friend
You give me love when needed most
You give me everything

My best of friends, my one true love
My special gift from God above
You are the days that lie ahead
You are… my everything

You give your hand when mine is bare
You give your heart to show you care
You give your time so eagerly
You give me everything

You give your dreams to share with me
You give your touch so sensually
You give your breath so I may live
You give me everything

My best of friends, my one true love
My special gift from God above
You are the days that lie ahead
You are… my everything
