Death

You sit by the headstone

Of the lover you lost

Does his spirit still roam

Why was he taken from you and at what cost

 

You cry loud sobs of tears

Crying more loudly hoping he hears

 

You sense a presence

From beyond the grave

Praying that is you that he'll save

 

He's a ghost now you see

He's filled only with dread

A spirit to wander not free but dead

 

As he reaches out to hug you

All around you see red
