So, before I sleep forever,
Just once, let me dance beneath the moon.
Feel the breeze, embrace the weather,
And, sing a gentle, timeless tune.
Just once, let me live a life,
Not someone else's, but my own.
Just once, let me feel,
What it means to be—truly real.
Before I sleep forever,
Just once, I wish, to really know,
What living means, to watch it truly flow.
Just once, I wish, to live with passion, raw and true,
And enjoy each moment, as if it's all brand new.
So, before I sleep forever,
Let my heart's desires be clear,
In the quiet, just let me hear,
The whispers of a life that I've always held dear.
