for I know you love me as I love thee, every breath for each other we breathe.

All I may do I will do to spare you the truth
the death-pain felt by the last in our life to remain;
With sorrow undying, eyes never drying till last beat of our heart.

The moment you choked, gasping for air, I saw terror in your eyes.
While within me that same terror screamed, my heart ceasing beat at mere thought,
forbid the deed, of living my life without you.

There are rocks of sand, rocks of iron, so are as people, in sooth;
I am of iron while you, though of stone, my dearest sand.
May you never, my darling, feel that loss, pay agony/'/s cost of living your life without me.

My darling, if one must go and one remain, I pray you spared, find only joy in the end;
I/'/ll be blessing you, thanking you, for in like, you/'/ve in kindness with love blessed me;
my soul will leak tears to join those I will cry, but I//'//ll take solace in knowing bathed in love you/'/ll be going,
not left in pain ever growing the moment I die.

I fear for you my Darling; my Darling, I fear for you,
for I know you love me as I love thee, every breath for each other we breathe.

All I may do I will do to spare you the truth
the death-pain felt by the last in our life to remain;
With sorrow undying, eyes never drying till last beat of our heart.

The moment you choked, gasping for air, I saw terror in your eyes.
While within me that same terror screamed, my heart ceasing beat at mere thought,
forbid the deed, of living my life without you.

There are rocks of sand, rocks of iron, so are as people, in sooth;
I am of iron while you, though of stone, my dearest sand.
May you never, my darling, feel that loss, pay agony/'/s cost of living your life without me.

My darling, if one must go and one remain, I pray you spared, find only joy in the end;
I/'/ll be blessing you, thanking you, for in like, you/'/ve in kindness with love blessed me;
my soul will leak tears to join those I will cry, but I//'//ll take solace in knowing bathed in love you/'/ll be going,
not left in pain ever growing the moment I die.
