Only You Make It Possible For Me

ONLY YOU MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR ME Only you make it possible for me: . . . To question the way of this Life and find my only reply - Eye-to-eye, hand-in-hand, step-by-step with thee; . . . And to find rest for a moment to plea - To tell this impossibly wearying, worrying world why Only you make it possible for me; . . . And that Christmas winter’s gifted spree Is mere abandonment in icy wasteland unless am I Eye-to-eye, hand-in-hand, step-by-step with thee; . . . And that after May sunrises of spring-delight I see Happiness is within reach after a dark night - aye, Only you make it possible for me; . . . And that I will not take the path to heaven’s glory With all its purposeless joy and eternity except it lie Eye-to-eye, hand-in-hand, step-by-step with thee. In this world every day I move, feel, and see But my sole response is simply to sigh - Only you make it possible for me, Eye-to-eye, hand-in-hand, step-by-step with thee. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Written for Catie Lindsey's Contest "Villanelle Me"
