Soothing death,
my body a burden,
frail and fragile,
my spirit a prisoner
held by its bond.
Soon the gaol shall break,
my body planted eternally
in the earth,
that my spirit may be set
free and loose.
It shall travel with her
across borders and boundaries,
greet miles,
and dwell beyond distance,
walking her into eternity.
Death, my hope of reunion
with my blushing bride.
O death, your pang I treasure,
that I may be with her,
and she with me, eternally.
