Burial Wedding

Your void gnaws at the marrow of my days
Every shadow wears your shape
I speak to the dark, hoping it listens
Hoping it carries my words to where you are

The nights are colder without your breath
The walls echo with a silence that bleeds
And I am left staring at the distance
Between my pulse and yours

I long to sleep where you lie
Beneath the weight of forgotten skies
To silence the ache in my bones
And end the chapters you left unfinished

I have counted the days until the Sun fades
Each one heavier than the last
I have stood on the edge of the same abyss
That swallowed your final sigh

If I step forward, will you be there?
Or is death just another empty room?
Still, I'd rather fall into nothingness
Than keep walking without you

No prayer will save me
No light will call me back
Only the cold hand of the end
Will place mine in yours again

I will sleep where you lie
Under the same merciless earth
And in the dark, I will find you
Or vanish trying
