When Death Comes By My Door
When Death comes by my Door
And smiles at me Within --
I'll gather up my dancing Shoes
And Waltz away with Him --
My feet, tho' never touching Earth
Will Waltz up Wind and down --
And I will wear my Wrapping Shroud
As a Wedding Gown.
When Death comes by my Door
And brings me to His Bed --
I'll ask of God no Other dark
Lover in His stead --
But hold Him close and seal his lips
With bold Kisses forever --
Nor Moon nor Stars shall shake us
While we abide Together.
My feet, tho' never touching Earth
Will Waltz up Wind and down --
And I will wear my Wrapping Shroud
As a Wedding Gown.
--Me (as Emily)
