When I

When I die

let there be enough light

for me to see my way clearly

so I can remember the wonder

Give me just a moment

to pause and reflect

on the kindness of my friends

and the love of my lover

Let me have enough breath

to whisper his name

one last time

and the courage to say goodbye

When I die

I hope crows fill the sky

and there is music in the air

and fearless dancing
