A letter from Beyond

Did you get my letter yesterday?
did you read it at all
did the boy give it to you
or did he give it to your parents
did you read it, dear John?

You see I waited for you at the bustop
you said you would be there
I waited for a night and a day
but you never came by
I couldn’t go home anymore
I couldn't tell you why

I told my parents I was going away
I said I would never return
for I am going with you
to a place where
there is only you and I

They pushed me out the door
good riddance to bad rubbish they say
g[i]et out and stay away
You are little more than a slut
[/i]
they turned away and closed the door

I waited for you again today
Sitting at the bustop all day
Its been a year and a month
That I fell asleep on this bench
I have been here since

I heard a woman say today
This bustop is haunted by a young lady
Died of exposure here so long ago
I shiver as she walked away
Passing right through me…..
