Diana:

You fill our hearts and you fill our mind,

through-out the sands of time.

When we are weak

you are strong,

you make us feel

there is nothing wrong.

I think of you

in the day,

when I am away.

When I come back

to my house,

I go out side

as quite as a mouse.

Not to be seen,

not to be heard,

as I praise with my words.

Though its late

I do not care,

for its the darkness

that we share.

You fill my mind

like a stream

with the knowledge

that is unseen.

You are my comfort

in my dreams,

You are my strength while I am awake.

It is Joy

that you give.

but to be coy

is how we live.

Those who seek you
