Death Will Not Do Us Part
A love so strong, it’d last a lifetime,
and even ever after.
Renew our vows in a mausoleum
with a ghostly phantom pastor.
Boney fingers intertwine—
a love to last the ages.
Spider eggs instead of rice
will be thrown to celebrate us.
A skeleton horse-drawn carriage
awaits us at the steps.
The driver snaps a fiery whip—
we’re sure he must be Death.
Ghouls and goblins cheer alike
as we pass through the cemetery.
A living soul would be terrified,
but to us, it’s not so scary.
Lipless lips join for a kiss—
the end of all our strife.
There’s no one with whom
I’d rather spend
the rest of my afterlife.
