Like Eric & Shelly

Like Eric & Shelly

It's raining on my grave
And it's raining in my heart
I've been dead for a whole year
And it's not even the worse part

She is buried next to me
But I woke and she had not
I don't want to live without her!
The only thing I can think about, is her! and the night we were shot!

A crow sits on my tombstone
I think it wants me to follow it
So I get up and re teach myself to walk
Then it leads me to a very familiar piece of shit!

There is a guy in an alley
Sticking up another poor young couple 
The same guy in fact 
The one who caused me all my trouble

I say lessons never learned old friend!
He turns and says (no!, you're a ghost!
I killed you last year!
At your funeral I gave a toast!?!)

Yet here I am!
He shoots me again
And I laughed in his face as the bullet did nothing

I walked towards him 
He pops off another round
I pretend that it worked 
And I fall to the ground

He came to see if I was dead
Then searched through my pockets
Then I dug my thumb nails
Deep into his eye sockets!

I told him as he struggled
It's not so bad you killed me 
But her why her?
In the middle of his screams 
He said fuck you!.....and her!

I got up and grabbed his gun
Out of a puddle of mud
There was a loud bang
And a sudden thud

The crow took me back
Back to my resting place
But I wasn't ready 
I wanted to see her face 

So with my bare hands 
I dug till I reached her
And went back to sleep
In her coffin , next to her

Man Alive, Good read man... This should have received more comments and stars, I give you my 5 stars, and favorite in my selection... Good story from beginning to end, it is not evil, nor is it good, but the character and the write is its own entity, with chance to seek revenge and revisit his love, lying next to him... Very well done man: wolf
