for my grandad.but don't let that put you off
I sit among these bones, these human bones, with you;
Beneath a trailing willow I weep with it too.
Raise my face unto a sparkling sky, watch my voice float as I cry out 'Why?'
This night's as blind as true young love,
No moon to paint the clouds above;
This darkness I embrace so glad
A blackened mask to hide my sad
And bleeding heart and pain;
Kneeling here to bury it, kneeling here again.
A bed of lillies, scent of death, alone;
A pillow of frozen, engraved srone
Wrapped with pearls, a goodbye kiss ,
"For whom we loved and dearly missed'.
This night I dance with death -
And Joy as well! Pray for my soul that it may dwell
In heaven, safe, forever kept
With thee for whom the angels wept!
And now myself! Be good! Be brave!
Fear not the end, this earthy grave!

I lie among these bones, these human bones,
For you!
Close my casket pray that I should spend
Eternity with you.
