A velvet darkness ... Too dark to see A deep silence ... Too quiet to hear A killing pain ... Too quick to feel A loving heart ... Too lonely to beat. |
Gentle hands ... To soothe my pain Strong arms ... To hold me close Quiet voice ... To comfort me Loving words ... To a devoted soul. |
The end of my life ... Held close in your arms Your love around me ... Its glow filling my soul As Death claims me quietly ...From your arms to his And a whispered farewell ... with one last kiss. |
