To the Ne'er Ailing

(I wrote this freshman year of college while visiting my girlfriend. She claimed she never gets sick, but I was watching over her while she was slipping in and out of consciousness when she was ill.)

You were there when I was failing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there to hear my wailing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there my mind pain jailing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there my thoughts derailing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there hurt through body nailing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there with my face paleing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there health life a trailing,
You, the ne'er ailing.
You were there though my eyes veiling,
You, the ne'er ailing.
Now, I am here as you are failing,
You, the now ailing.
I am here to hear your wailing,
Me with you, you strength regaining.
