Everything To Me

You were everything to me, my love, My life, my destiny. When I was weak, in disarray, Your love was just a kiss away. Angelic gift from God above, You made the best of me. You were everything to me, my spouse, My heart's intensity. When I had sought my highest peak, I knew, 'twas you who made me seek, And though I never had a house, A home you've given me. You were everything to me, my loss, My pain, my misery. I held you close, but still you died, I couldn't save you, though I tried, And now your grave is plagued with moss, And I, uncertainty. You were everything to me, my ghost, My mad insanity. I see you in my sour dreams, And waking hours, now it seems, So here I'll hang from your same post, And I'll be damned with thee.

Excellent. Very powerful words. I do believe you could Line 6, Stanza 1, to something like "You made the best from me" or "You refined the best in me". But as is, it is still great.
