• My dear one;
    There you are!
    Right within grasp
    Right there you are...
    I care for you,
    my worry is yours;
    And my heart doth beat the rough course;
    The course I must take
    My friend, My love.
    The course set before me -
    The one from above.
    You alone are my care!
    Sorrow be it only for you;
    You need to be happy,
    And I do, too.
    But how can I be?
    Everything I do only worsens;
    My aid I give
    But the cloth only coarsens.
    Impossible as it seems
    I, too, am human.
    Your aver Jo, John,
    Beth or Susan.
    Yet, My Friend, its for you
    and you alone!
    I give it my all -
    Down to the bare bone...
    Friendship I seek -
    for it to be mine.
    Enemies, however,
    are all I can find.
