A Decade In The Sun

I sat in chaos, hiding my tears,

You waited for death to end your fears.

My world was broken, gray and bleak,

You came to paint for just one week.

I refused to talk, eat or smile,

You brought lasagna and stayed awhile.

I had no strength or joyful glow,

You colored my world and made me grow.

A decade later you still cherish my heart,

While I nurtured your spirit from the start.

Two halves of a whole, together we're one,

A decade together spent sharing the sun.
