Sit Beside My Bed

Sit beside my bed...
Sit beside my bed...
Before my breath starts counting to naught.
One more last time,
For many lives to come,
Let our eyes meet once again to love,
Before they part..

Let me once more smell the fragrance of you
The fragrance which I adore to keep
My breath will take the last smell and go
Along with it your memories will flow.

Let me once more touch your wrinkled fingers
Once so soft like a wet rose petal
Smothered in roses under the grave
Those rubbing fingers alone will stay.

Let my heart again melt on your heat
The heat once covered me in vile winter colds
The warmth of your hugs and kisses of dew
Will fly with me to the heaven high.

While last slanting rays glaring my eyes
Sit beside my bed...
Sit beside my bed...
