I heard a Fly buzz - when I died -
The Stillness in the Room
Was like the Stillness in the Air -
Between the Heaves of Storm -
 
The Eyes around - had wrung1 them dry -
And Breaths were gathering2 firm
For that last Onset3 - when the King
Be witnessed - in the Room -
 
I willed my Keepsakes - Signed away
What portion of me be
Assignable - and then it was
There interposed a Fly -
 
With Blue - uncertain stumbling Buzz -
Between the light - and me -
And then the Windows failed - and then
I could not see to see -
 
 
The people all finished crying, stand in the quiet room preparing for her closing moments, when it is assumed that she will see the God (King) to lead her to the journey of eternal life. The hush4 in the room encompasses5 everyone and everything, including even the air that fills the room. As per deathbed tradition, she wills away her material possessions, although distracted by the idea that not all of hers is assignable - presumptively, this not assignable part being her spirit or soul. She also might want to imply the hope of leaving something significant behind, not just physical things. It is worth noticing that the fly is the last thing she sees and hears alive, which buzzes as death is approaching. Then the fly blinds her vision by light until the eyes are shut into complete darkness, windows being a metaphor6 for eyes. Serving as a symbolic7 earthly inhabitant, it both solaces8 and advises her about death and the appreciation9 for life. Blue is a tranquil10 and soothing11 color for her to feel comforted before losing consciousness. The uncertain characteristic could be representative of her own unsure feelings towards death. The stumbling aspect alludes12 to a movement that is lacking in elegance13 or attractiveness. The buzzing sound might stand for the hold that the living world has on her at those last surviving moments. By choosing this creature, Emily depicts14 the beauty in every living thing: even the galling15 fly (reminds us of the most corporeal16 aspects of death: the rotting and decomposition17 of a corpse) has a function and a place on earth and in life.
