May I Speak of Love

With my final breath
may I speak of love
may you be beside me
hearing my longing
never to depart

May you be beside me
come what may, what might
may our love grow stronger
even in the night

With my last breath
may I breathe,
- I love you,
may the words grow stronger
even in that night
facing that tomorrow
hoping it is bright
