Beautiful Monster

Digging, digging, robbing graves,
But things like rings aren't what I crave.
I need something much more grotesque,
Like arms and legs and hands, a head.
I'm building something, like a friend,
To help this loneliness to mend.
I'm almost done now, just need a face,
The most Beautiful in all the graves.
I found it on a rotting bride,
Long, brown hair and skin so white.
You could say Love at first sight,
But I would say wait till tonight,
When thunder rolls and lightning strikes,
My beautiful Monster will be alive.

There she lay upon her bed,
Beautiful friend without a head.
Her pieces perfectly in place,
It's time to give my friend a face.
I sewed Her head on so gently,
Such Love and Care is in those strings.
I sat there for a moments time,
Admiring what's soon to be mine.
Now I've but to await the storm,
And think of my new friend reborn.
While waiting I cant help but stare,
She looks so peaceful laying there.
She doesn't seem dead, just lost in dreams,
Waiting to wake to new things.
In the distance thunders crash,
It's here to wake her up, at last!
I prepare her on a slab,
Connecting wires, pulling tabs.
Thunder crashes, lightning strikes,
The room lights up, then dark as night.
I'm worried things did not go right,
I'm worried she is not alive.
The lights returned, to my surprise,
I found her gone, no where in sight.
As I turned to begin my search,
My deep, dark eyes met up with hers.
She grabbed me and I screamed inside,
Fearful that she'd take my life.
But no, she only offered me embrace,
Just then I saw inside her Grace.
She held me and began to cry,
As if She took my pain inside.
She said "I Love You", gave me a kiss,
I knew I found the Love I'd missed.
But with Her Love came such a woe,
And pain I think nobody knows.
She saw a mirror, saw herself,
Then gave a scream that came from Hell.
She broke the mirror, grabbed a shard,
And stabbed herself right in the Heart.
I screamed and cried to no avail,
There she was, lifeless and pale.
I have no Hope now that she's gone,
I cut it out for being wrong.
Now I bleed out awaiting Her,
My now dead living Dead girl,
Soon I'll be right there with Her
My only love, My Beautiful Monster.
