If

© Brenda Diskin 1996, 2012 onwards

If I had one last wish
it would be that you would love me.
If I had one last dream
it would be your life to share.
If I had one last hope
it would be for happiness to surround us.
If I had one last memory
it would be to know that you care.
If I had one last touch
it would be your hand I'd hold.
If I had one last sight
to see you would be my aim.
If I had one last day
I would want to spend it in your arms.
If I had one last breath
it would be used to speak your name.
