Just One More Day

If Death would grant, just one more day, I’d use that time to simply play. I'd take you in my arms once more, and get to know you like before. If I could, but see you again, without the fog of grief or pain. I would start my day with a smile, if we could just talk for a while. I'd say the words kept in my heart, like how I loved you from the start. And to mend a heart that’s broken, silent feelings would be spoken. I'd snuggle close and hold your hand, letting you know just where I stand. I'd reacquaint myself with you, so you would know my love was true. I would spend our time together, wishing it would last forever. And with our lips pressed in a kiss, I’d fill your last moments with bliss.
