I found my fortune in you.
The smile you see, the day before and the day tomorrow, is my fortune from you.
The line I lost, the deeper the swim, the agony I felt, you extricated.
none other would have held to save someone so heavy , so frail.
Every day, I feel my fortune, my every need and desire given.
I would not have today or tomorrow to enjoy the beauty you have given to me,
if it were not for the vigilance in which you have protected.
I feel my fortune around me, though I feel it is not deserved.
I try to give it back, but you only give me more.
If I could love myself like you love me, I could rest in the peace.
Smile and dance, prance and preen, and double it’s worth for you.
