I want to die while you love me,
While yet you hold me fair,
While Laughter lies upon my lips
And lights are in my hair.
I want to die while you love me
And bear to that still bed
Your kisses turbulent, unspent
To warm me when I’m dead.
I want to die while you love me;
Oh, who would care to live
Till love has nothing more to ask
And nothing more to give?
I want to die while you love me,
And never, never see
The glory of this perfect day
Grow dim, or cease to be!

Its funny how the meaning changes so much once you've lost your special love. -
marvelous
This is a poem with common yet unique idea. Much has already been written on this subject but still many aspects need elaboration. The poet has very successfully expressed her emotive feelings about love. -
