A dark and stormy
morning, I entered the church with all the other mourners, dressed in
plain black, storm clouds passed and covered the church in a blanket
of darkness. I pull the tall, weathered doors open and walk
reverently down the center aisle. There you are in that casket, stiff
and lifeless, never again to smile or laugh like you once did with
me. I see your face, pale and peaceful. I know you are gone, but your
presence still lingers here, and it won't leave me alone. You were
my everything; you captivated me and brought the only light I'd
ever known. Now that you're gone, I'm left with the light you
left behind. Your voice took away the pain and the sanity! I can't
believe you left me! I thought I meant something to you but I guess
death meant more didn't it? You wanted to be free of this prison,
free of this nightmare. I thought I was doing something right. When
you cried I wiped away all your tears, I held you in my arms and
comforted you, I reassured you! When you screamed I comforted you, I
held your hand through it all. The wounds in my heart bleed for you,
they will never heal, this is something not even time can erase. Your
memory will always hold dear in my heart. Though you are gone from
this wretched earth, you will never be gone from me. This pain is too
real, too much to endure. I've tried so hard to tell myself you're
gone but you're still with me in my heart, forever dear. A part of
me has died, never to walk this earth again! A life without you in
it, without your smile, your voice, your presence, your love is too
much to bear my immortal, and so I shall leave as well. I will not
let my childish fears stop me from joining you my love. I leaned
over, into the casket and pressed my warm lips against you cold,
frozen, still ones, hot tears fell onto your lifeless face. "We'll
be together again soon my love…" I whispered as my voice trailed
off. I walked up the stairs to the alter, the other mourners stared
at me but I pulled a shiny silver dagger out and rammed it through my
heart. Blood spilled everywhere and I fell to the ground. People
gathered around me and screamed "Call 911! Hurry!" I knew it was
too late and hoped to die before the paramedics arrived. Through much
pain, I crawled over to the casket, blood saturated the carpet. "I'll
be with you soon my love," I whispered taking the others hand. I
fell to the ground and coughed once. The casket fell to the ground,
the other body tumbled out. Slowly, I took the other's hand in my
own. "Together again my immortal…" I whispered as my eyes
fluttered shut and I took my last breath.
