Mae allt 'da fi,
ble dw i'n mynd i anghofio,
popeth fy myd,
popeth fy mryd.
Mae mainc 'da fi,
o'r golwg yn y goedwig,
i eistedd a chroen,
ymheulo tan swyn.
Mae castell 'da fi,
wedi dwyn o dylwyth teg,
ble dawnsio'r sêr,
a byw eneidiau têr.
Dim on yma bod fi,
gweledig gan chi,
heb fy ngwên neu fy mwgwd,
llai na noeth,
dim ond ysgerbwd.
Felly, dilladu fi,
gwneud fi'n dynol, eto.
*~-Just a skeleton-~*
I have a hill,
where I go to forget
everything from my world,
everything in my mind.
I have a bench,
hidden in the trees,
to sit and hide,
basking under a spell.
I have a castle,
stolen from a fairytale,
where stars dance,
and pure souls live.
Only here do I exist,
seen by you,
without my smile, or my mask,
less than naked,
just a skeleton.
So clothe me,
make me human, again.

Charlotte;
All right, if nobody else will I'll ask the question. What language did you use for your open stanzas? My first guess would be Elfin as described by Tolkien. Or are these verses from the ancient Edda? Could it possibly be a tongue you have created yourself?
Last question: would I be correct in interpreting the title as "Just a Skeleton?"
Married ten years, and more in love than ever, Robert and Marcie have everything to live for. But a terrible secret is breaking Robert's heart: he knows that Marcie is about to die...
