When I Am Dead

When I am dead please give me life 
On the edge of a music string
Like hanging notes of written codes.

My eyes will close, the light will go
But wake another beam in my soul.

Give me love my life has earned 
Give me bliss my heart has longed 
Sing me rhymes of heart's enchantment
That match with music sweet to ears.
