    On Dying Breath

    The gift shared if ever by two,
    Then it’s all I want to gain in loving you.
    One last kiss, I surrender to thee,
    If I should beg or simply ask, for you to love me.

    My soul opens up to embrace a new day,
    As long as it’s you I feel at my side, then I'm okay.
    If you do not love, then simply lie,
    For it’s your heart alone I can not deny.

    If you only ask, then be sure to receive,
    Once spoken, you loved me, I will surely believe.
    A part of you, the embrace I long to give,
    In this lifetime, together with you I shall live.

    When dawning hour approaches, as ocean rushes to shore,
    On dying breath I whisper, "I love thee" drifting into Heaven's door
