As I lay here with the one i hold dear,

I clutch her hand in deep fear,

Saddened and Restless unsure ambitions,

As I look at her on the mattress cushions,

Perfect and beautiful in every way,

Wishing we could be together until we're grey,

As I lay here with the one I hold dear,

I gaze at the sight as her life disappears,
