Image for the poem Undying Love.

Undying Love.

The wedding bells ring loudly out for all the world to hear

She stood before her husband to a choir of ghostly cheer

The ring upon her finger sparkled bright in pale moon light

The dusty bones beneath her dress concealed extinguished life

He lifts the veil to look upon her once enchanting face

A bony kiss from absent lips a warm undead embrace

Vows of love eternal are exchanged till death do part

The father gives his blessings by the echo of their hearts

The ruins of the chapel where they stood in days gone by

Watches over fallen lovers, laid to rest both side by side

A wedding day that should have been the sweetest of them all

A wedding day that never was as lovers came to fall.

Year by year the ghostly bride and groom vacate their grave

Determined accomplish what in life could not be saved

The ruins of the chapel where they never said their vows

Will forever hold the secrets of the day when love fell down

Truest love between them taken down by cruellest fate

Will not stop the undead lovers find a way to celebrate.
