Dickinson expresses her emotions at the final moments of her death. She mentions that, "I heard a Fly buzz-when I died".She is feeling a sense of acceptance as she surrenders herself in peace to the "King", which is a metaphor of death, and as she put it, "For the last Onset-when the King Be Witnessed-in the Room". Also, the word "Blue" is another metaphor of death, as the blue flies fly over dead bodies. She emphasized the final death in a metaphor of shutting her eyes, when she writes,"And then the Windows failed".
