I refuse to commit death will do us part.
I prevail to haunt you,
way after I am gone.

appear in mirrors, dreams or canvas frames
when you look closer.
wait with darkness in my heart
to when you walk by.

I refuse to commit to any parting, instead
After I die
I intend to get to know you.

unseen, far beyond reach, thought well hidden
as I am right now.
as I had always been
as we have always loved
and died.
