When I'm Gone (after Christina Rossetti)*
When I'm gone
the sun will still glow-
in towns and cities
people will come and go-
in the green meadow
flowers will cease not to grow-
everywhere -hither and whiter
the winds will continue to blow-
come summer or winter
lovers in their hearts will know
that vows are meant forever
as unto each other's ***** they throw-
when I'm gone--I'll not be alone
I'll still feel the warmth and mirth below:
those I've cherished will remember me
and love me as dearly as before.
* after listening to a love-song on 'end of the world'
