If I die Young
North Italy x Dead!Reader

White clothing laid softly on the red flowers,
as the thornless roses brushed lightly on the soft (skintone) legs.
(h/c) hair gracefully danced with the wind.
Everything was quiet and peaceful,
And you began to hum your favorite song.

"If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song...."

---

Your mother gazed out the window,to the fields.
"Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother"
The fields is were you would always be,were you would always rest and play.
"She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors"
She pulled a rose from the vase,they were always your favorite flowers.
It reminded her of you,(e/c) eyes full of innocence and happiness.
She's sure that your now safe in heaven,standing beside God.
She never knew why her little sweet child had to be taken,way from her.
"Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby"



Feliciano sat near your cold dead body,lying on a bed of roses.
"The sharp knife of a short life"
You were stabbed on the heart,murdered.
"Well, I've had just enough time"
He hoped,that you were happy.That you didn't have any regrets.
"And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger"
He looked at your once full of life,now dead and cold.
He reached for your hand,and looked at the little green engagement ring that he gave you on a very special night.He held your hand,tears streamed down his face.
"I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand"
He quietly sobbed,the once cheerful man was filled with sadness

"There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever"
He sobbed, "(name),we promised.Forever right?Forever?" he whispered between his sobs,
"Forever...."
"Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life"
He held your hand more tightly,he never thought that the promise both of you had made will be broken.Because of a sharp knife.
"Well, I've had just enough time..."
But still,he was happy.That you loved him and he loved you.

"So put on your best,boys,and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done"


"A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar"
You were stabbed,in the heart by a sharp knife.
"They're worth so much more after I'm a goner..."
You could feel your life slipping away,more blood was lost.
Feli tried to whisper comforting things to you.To keep you alive,but it was no use.
"And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing"
You were at the hospital.Lying in a hospital bed with all your close ones around you.
"Funny, when you're dead how people start listening..."
With all the strength left,you spoke softly.

"If I die young,
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song..."

Time seemed to slow down,
"The ballad of a dove"
You closed your eyes slowly,
"Go with peace and love"
As the awful sound began to start
"Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket"
Feli mouthed some words yet you could no longer hear them
"Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh"
Tears streamed down your mother's face and onto your clean white dress

The sun was rising,making everything golden.
"The sharp knife of a short life"
Yet,it could not brighten up the mood.
"Well, I've had just enough time..."
The priest mouthed some words and everyone began to sing
"So put on your best, boys"
Soon,on the coffin which you slept began to drift away from land
"And I'll wear my pearls...."
