"our love will last forever."
they said,
as they drank the chemicals
together.
but how long is forever?
100 years,
they celebrate
with a huge party,
just the two of them.
150 years,
they celebrated
at home with a cake,
just the two of them.
200 years,
"I'm 230 years old."
"so am I."
"don't you think we're a little old?"
"no,
we are together
f o r e v e r."
she decided she had enough of loved ones
dying and stopped the ministrations.
she withered away by
the end of the day
&
the poor boy
cried alone,
forever.
