To My Love

Do not fret
my love
For I am
going now

Do not shed
thy tears
For I will
be lonely

Put a smile
in thy face
To thy heart
that is aching

Think of tomorrow
that brings happiness
For we will be
together again

I'm Nobody

I'm Nobody
by Emily Dickinson

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us -don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.

How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog.
To tell your name the livelong day.
To an admiring bog!
