The mist arose that night
upon a Graveyard still.
As afew stepped within the holy grounds
and waited with a newfound thrill.
Not many did come that day
so few could make it i guess.
And as i stauled for time
i knew, we'd go on without the rest.
I dressed as slowly as i could
as a Tombstone became my shield.
And as i stood before a Priestess
i looked down unto my empty hands,
where my best friend was to partake, and play
but none of the guests did arrive
on my wedding day.
And bravely i walked the isle alone
and bravely i stood my ground.
For few had ever seen me
in such a tiny gown.
I took him by the hand and prayed
I took to him my heart
I took him the very things that would make our love embark.
And as the ceremony soon did end
and in a hurry they all had fled
the priestess came to us
with hugs and Tainted words.
Yet never did i mind the Fiend
she wasn't worth my time
all that i had wanted yet
was to be a loving bride.
And he who'd taken more my woe
and held tightly unto me
to keep me safe as i did cry
for friends i missed indeed.
For as he was of gentle heart
and ever more were we
he swept me off my feet that night
and gave his love to me.
so peaceful it seemed to be.
For oft' i'd dreamed of a place
yet never thought it to be.
And he knew every dream alive
that did reside inside of me.
For all he did was try
to make me smile happily.
He brought my dreams to life
and whisked away my fears
that often fell upon my cheek
in the shape of tiny tears.
For need not i of diamonds nor pearls
but merely to be loved awhole
and not for one to sidecast me.
I lay, sickly in his arms
as he comforts me and holds me ohhh so close.
Barely able to see or think
i hold him tightly and try not to blink.
The pain resides worser still
and fainting becomes a common thrill.
Days did past and i grew weaker
never knowing we had a visitor.
He looked after me day and night
never did he leave my sight.
Then mun recommended a vacation
away from this pleasant land of ours.
Relentlessly i did go,
to save myself from horrors.
Many months for i had gone
to heal my troubles and worries.
Then, after time and place had fallen
she returned with a little one in her arms.
Happy to be home and rest
and glad that her mind was set.
As i looked down to my tiny bundle of joy
my husband held us both kissing us more.
Happy were the three of us
to share a new life and all the pleasantries.
