For the past year my
wife has been battling cancer. Last month when we were up north I was sitting
outside by the campfire and I could see her silhouette as she sat inside by the
window. I wrote this in the next moment.
Title: Tenderness
By: Bruce
Hackmann
As I watched you walk
before me
I think of the
tenderness I should share
As you changed before
my eyes
I realized how much I
care
With each slipping
moment
I questioned the man
that was within
Emotions ran deep
inside
I pondered the time of
when
When do I share the
tenderness
When do I stand strong
It’s not about being
strong
When, what is required
is gentleness
I’m not a perfect man
I questioned if I did
all I can
I want to give you all
the tenderness
I cannot wait until it
is effortless
But,
I’ll still stand
strong
