»You«

by Hettie Van Zyl

You still the most precious thing
in my life.
You the woman of my youth.
The golden hair long gone by now.
But Sweatheart I still love you.

So silently some times I watched
The trembling of your hand.
The hard you try to make so sure
where the cup of tea must land.

Forgetting of important things
makes you so sad and blue,
still you the most precious thing
in my life.
Sweatheart I still love you.

The slowness in your steps
these days,
has not pass my eyes.
Also the sleepless nights you have,
so to that silent cry.

The restlessness in your eyes
sometimes.
Show me you realize to,
that both of us are growing old.
But, sweetheart I still love you.
