Love, My 'Hope' In One Life Poem by James McLain

Love, my 'Hope' In One Life;
and when not if,
it must have come upon me.
Lost in you, held in me, your heart.
Giving you less,
and lost, you gave me more.
I am failing and the more I fail,
and more, I wish less to fail.
Failing that,
will you touch my hand,
One more time,
before the light begins to fade.
And even after, after before, before
even after, before that dawn ever came.
