I Gave My All

I thought she was the one
my beloved who could show me appreciation,
I gave her my all
my love, my care and my inspiration,

When she was lonely I was there,
when she got sicked I stayed here,
when she cried I wiped her tears,
I gave her love and support for all
these years,
to her I gave my all, though she gave nothing.
