As Long As I

When the heart and brain cease to function
I will no longer exist,
but as long as I am living
I will do the thing I love to do.

As long as I have arms
I can give a hug when needed.
As long as I have legs
I can walk that extra mile.

As long as I have eyes
I can see the beauty around me.
As long as I have a brain
I can think of may things.

As long I have fingers
I can write down what I think.
As long as I have a tongue.
I will tell the world of my dreams.

As long as I have a heart
I can and will live and love.
As Long as I have you
my world is complete.
