Zombie Love

Zombie Love,
I watched you die.
I mourned your loss
With vivid dreams.
Six good feet
Of coldest logic
Hold you down
And muffle screams.

I watch the spot and hold
My shotgun tightly to my chest.
There is no second chance, my love.
Death is for the best.
So if you dare to rear your
Rotting carcass from the ground,
I'll shoot on sight.

Sometimes what's lost should not be found.

Conflict by JDarnell 

Once She Swore She Could Not

Once she swore she could not live without him!
Would not, could not, blended all the same.
Hardest was when could and would divided;
With that fateful breaking came the pain.

Time can't touch the part of her still weeping,
Though she doesn't notice every day.
Her heart is safely back within her keeping,
But unlike love, pain never goes away.
