Dying happy
My dying wish,
Is to kiss your lips.
One last time,
So I know you're mine.
Departing in peace from your touch,
Dying happily in your love.
Wrapped in the warmth of your grace,
One last look at your pretty face.
I will tell you everything will be ok,
After all you already took my breath away.
So as long as I can kiss you good night,
I'll die happy if I don't see the morning light.
