1If death does kiss me
While I sleep
Holds me while
My breath is deep
If my eyes
Never see
Another morning break
Do not fret my love
For while an icy cold
May linger over me
And a heart beat
May whisper softly
I'll have escaped this end
For while dark matters
Cross behind my eyes
Within them
Light and hope flutter by
For on my lips will lie
A warmth
And my breath will quicken
While my eyes soar
Over the waking of the dawn
My love will not fret
For while a soft glow
Embraces me
And my heart beats
So timelessly
I'll have escaped the end
For in the second day ended
It began with you
