Grant me this time together,
your smiles and your gaze
Unhurried moments,
for the flesh and the heart's embrace
May souls mingled in shared joy
shared now intertwine
As care and trust
In loving union unite
However brief this treasure may be
We have found
Its memories forever
In breast bound
Each kindness a feather
To carry on the winds of life
Warming the soul
Till the veil of the end descends
This gift of your care,
I will always keep
Safe in my heart
Where no one else can reach
