WHAT A WIFE I HAVE!
WHAT A WIFE I HAVE!I miss my wife beyond conceptionBut! Yet I've failed to visualise,And no doubt truly realiseHow I can show her grand affection.I caused her to join my depressionAnd oh I know, how much it takesAnd what dark mockery it makesWith its claws of deep aggression!I hope to see her soon againWhen I can be far less withdrawn,So her poor heart no longer mournsAnd wonders where to place the blame!An angel she has cared for meShe's watched my eyes with wounds and tears,And nursed my anger and my fearsWhile craving the man I could be.I WILL break through this, I'm now sureIt may be harder than I thinkI may yet even further sink,Yet for my wife I WILL endure.I love my wife but haven't showedAnd often don't appreciate,As my dark heart's consumed with hateI've made her carry twice the load.See I've NOT showed her that I careOr given her reason for hope,Instead I've failed her and not copedBUT! That will change I'll flee despair!I know she'd settle for a fractionOf the love we used to shareAnd now my soul is SO aware,That, words are words and she needs ACTION!Somehow she's worked so hard through thisThroughout my sickness and her pain,With gratitude I shouldn't complainBut prepare with care to give her BLISS!And she's supported me so wellAnd now I truly realiseThat when I gaze into her eyes,She has so much endured a HELL!I'm SO ashamed of all the sorrowThat I've caused my sweetest wife,Along with untold, endless strifeThat for a year's been her tomorrows.So! In conclusion I should treasureWhat a woman! And what love!That only comes from far aboveI owe her years of ceaseless pleasure.And one more thing dear, finallyPlease find a way me to forgive,Let us together, TRULY live!And I'll show thanks SO endlessly!
