Richard

Through every joke
From each small pun
I hide a smile
I bite my tongue:
I dream sometimes of days with you
And trust in that you'll see me through
The trials of each stranger day
And hope I, for you, can do the same
And use each other for support
To curve our lips and lift felled hearts
The strength that in you I find dear
Gives me the strength to hold you near
And trust another dream again
And love to live another sin.
