Poem #489

the perfect marriage

he proposed to me on our first date
it was magical
his deep brown eyes twinkled
and I was smitten
of course I said “yes”
we’d known each other for years
all my friends said it was odd
my parents were worried
but I loved it
we had our lives to fall in love together

so it must be odd to find out
that I’m now a rotting corpse
six feet under
no one knows where I’m buried
except for him
he was the perfect husband
until one day he snapped
I don’t blame him
I’m waiting here patiently for him
we have eternity to fall in love together
