The Life That I Have

The life that I have is all that I have,

And the life that I have is yours.

The love that I have of the life that I have,

Is yours and yours and yours.

The sleep I shall have, a rest I shall have,

Yet death will be but a pause.

For the peace of my years in the long green grass,

Will be yours and yours and yours.

Violette Szabo

According to 'Carve Her Name With Pride', the poem was written by Violette's husband, but it was really written by codemaster Leo Marks, and was used by her as a code poem whilst she was on a mission in occupied France.
