Afterlife

My lips trembled from the fright,
life leaving my heart behind.
Can you reach me in the afterlife?
I was to be a bride in white,
till your hands stained me in red wine.
For better or worse, you promised me.
Immortality is bliss, a name stays engraved in stone for time to whisper it.
Can you reach me in the afterlife?
My ears hear a buzz, I'm trapped
in a room of bees.
The mosquito joined the ball,
the lion roars a heavy yell.
My zombie love smiles,
he never loved me.
His appetite for men grew,
I stayed a lonely soul in a box.
To cry in the afterlife.
