Need you now to know

 Tell me all you think about,
and all you ever knew.
Tell me things that caused you to doubt 
not what I meant to you.  

I'll listen to each private thought, keep it to myself.
share only in cherished memories..
repair all shortcomings,
to your bedside shelf. 

It's very important to me, 
I need you now to know..  
only the best will I share of you,   
with all th' others when you go.

Hello Paige, Thanks, I really enjoyed reading your new poem "A Shadow On The Sea". Very nice footsteps in sand and the repeating tides as they go low. -Richard
