I shall wait beside you’re coffin my love ,
ready for you to rise above ,
ready for you to spread you’re wings ,
above the dust and all mortal things .
For you were taken from me my dear ,
for if only sickness could have waited another year ?
Now daisies ripe upon the earth arise above and all around .
The bell above you’re head I left for you to ring ,
makes but not a sound !
For the foxes howl yet eary scream above you’re grave ,
is most sereal .
And the rodents that sharpen their tiny teeth on you’re slab
are drawn by the smell of you’re rotting flesh ,
and feverishly naw at thy stone instead .
Now the rain drops a patter ,
for now it won’t matter ,
one drop after another ,
upon you’re grave .
Can you hear them falling ,?
It can wait until morning,
for the dust clouds are forming ,
calling for my Daisy above her pritty head .
For if the body snatchers come ,
I shall shoot them down one by one .
And if some fine gentleman should share you’re grave ,
I shall make sure he has washed and shaved .
And if you’re ghost should ever flee ,
hail me down a carriage so I might follow thee .
And if that bell should ever ring ,
let it be not the winds that blow it still ,
upon thy beating breast .
