There will come a day

There will come a day, 

dearest, 

in the too near future, 

when I can no longer 

carry the burden of 

you. 

My arms tremble under you, 

and my back aches 

with the weight of your 

love. 

There will be a time 

when all I can carry 

is your heart 

in my heart, 

dearest. 

My arms will tremble 

no longer, 

and I will ache 

with the weight of 

passing time.
