You whisper in my ear

"Take my heart with you - do you hear,

You need to bring it back to me

Intact without a tear"

Do you know what it's like to know real fear?

Slipping in and out, a bright white light

Not knowing… whether you are coming or going

That bright white shiny light, calling you... into the night

Feel the soft warm touch of your tear

Not wanting any harm to come

You whisper... "do you hear"?

"I need you... to stay near"!

“I need you... to stay a little longer

Even if it's only for a little while

Just to see once again that

Special gentle smile”.

“This cannot be your time

I still need you with me

To be mine even if only

for a very short time”.
