When day is done
weary limbs stretched out
On my back
I lie down
My last thought is of you
Each moment of high emotion
Of challenge or time
When strength I need
In mind and heart....
I appear to conjure you
behind my closed eyes
To my fears conquer
More timid a maid
In your life
You may never aid
I smile as my mind accepts this
With passivity
defensive no more.......
