How do i love thee? Let me count the ways
I love thee to the depth annd breadth and height
my soul can reach. When feeling out of sight
For The Ends of Being and Ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's Most quiet need, By sun and candlelight
I Love thee Purely, as they turn from Praise
I love with a passionpuy yo use
In my Old Greifs, and with my childhood's faith
I love thee with a love i seemed to lose with my lost saints, I love thee with the Breath
Smiles, tears. Of all my life! and, If GOD choose
I shall but love thee better after death
" Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Hold on to me love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was
I love you and I'm not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms
Holding my last breath?
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you?
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree (you will find me)
I know you hear me,
I can taste it in your tears.
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you?
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here,
But still you wake and know the truth -
No one's there.
Say goodnight, don't be afraid
Calling me, holding me, as you fade to black.
(Say goodnight) Holding my last breath
(Don't be afraid) Safe inside myself
(Holding me) Are all my thoughts of you?
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you?
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
Holding my last breath...
