My Last Memory
 


I've prepared a feast
with candlelight and kisses
wanting to hold you tight
all through this night
watch the stars pass
in the sky
before saying goodbye
wanting to leave you
with contentment and knowledge
that I've loved you completely
and deeply without reservation
you are my reason to hold on
to fight for just one more day
sharing our hearts' songs...

I need to feel your breath
against my skin
share the beating of our hearts
the culmination of our love
to last forever and eternity
listening to your sweet voice
giving me a choice
wrapped in your love
sent from above
to caress your face
brush the hair from your eyes
begging darling please don't cry...

You know the time has come
for final goodbyes
I need you near
to cradle me in your arms
whispering our love songs
soothe my aching body
pretending I'm still strong
love me completely
without resolve or hesitation
bring me to a place of peace
be the solution to my needs
when I draw my last breath
it's you I want to see
to be my last memory
when I close my eyes in death.

My last words will always be~
I Love You My Darling

If I Had Just One More Day~
