The Bride

The Bride

A Poem by Whiskurz

While laying in my bed at night
I can hear her mournful cries
I'm sleeping in the very room
Where they say this woman dies
She always stands at the foot of my bed
But I'm afraid to look and see
She doesn't leave for many hours
She just stands there looking at me
How she died, simply no one knows
It was a hundred years ago
I don't know what keeps her here
But her spirit will not go
Then late one night, I decided to look
As she stood at the foot of my bed
I was expecting a thing of awesome beauty
But it was a corpse, half-rotted instead
She said, "I'll follow you where ever you go,
Where ever that place might be
For you've seen the bride before the wedding,
And now you must marry me"
So I moved away the very next day
While thinking I could hide
But she's no longer at the foot of my bed
For now she's by my side
