To My Wife
In this world
Few realize
The dreams they see
Behind closed eyes
Their fervent hopes
Fade gradually
And blend to meet
Reality.
I observe
Their destinies
Destroy their dreams
Unmercifully
I see them yield
To circumstance
And pity fills
My thoughtful glance
I reflect
Upon the grace
That excludes me
From their sad place
And grant the powers
Their full due
That filled my dreams
And gave me you.
Without reason
Undeserving
I am granted warmth and loving
Understanding
Friend through life
Given so few
Mine, through my wife.
