If my time comes then may it come.
I would only delay it to tell you once more of my love.
I would ask for just a few moments more to
pour out my dying heart in the midst of its fading pulse...

I have but a list of thanks and apologies to make...
to many, but most to you...I am mourning not my death,
but that my time was cut off before I could die with you,
before I meet my God.

Here in the garden which that
we had once dreamt of, I'll wait.
Watching you through the transparency of the pond
we would've sat by...filling it further,
with the tears that fall back to you.

It is not Heaven without you...it is only Limbo as Governed by God...
yet alas is there no such place as paradise
without you to hold, kiss and love. Patience and faith
would be my only allies against time.

And should I die right now, or at any given time...
I would want you to know that I never stopped loving you.
That the pain you brought me,
only delivered me back into the passion that we fought for...

My sins lie with my mistakes, laughing,
knowing that I am given only so much time to redeem myself...
only so much time to make your heart beat
a pulse for me once more, with a fire so sweet.

I have tried to the best the my ability and free will have to offer...
I have failed to the chance and
lack of luck that have been tossed on my path,
testing the very faith that did struggle while on my knees.

Should I meet my Guide in the white robe,
and be given the walkway to my God given limbo,
then all I truly wish for you to know...
is that I have always loved you...With a love that outlasts eternity.
