Love Needs No Words
You've been my caregiver so many times.
Surgery after surgery you were there.
Never a complaint came from your lips-
Bathed me, fed me with loving care.
All of this was behind us, we thought,
Until this year-
Oh, love, friend, soulmate of mine,
This year another surgery I fear.
A caregiver I'll need once again my love.
You laid your hand upon my shoulder,
As our heads touch, my tears did flow.
Two hearts became one, a sad note it did beat.
Love needs no words.
