Immortality is a worse punishment than your spear
Your baffled look tickles me as you drive it deeper in my heart
A heart of black cold lifeless decay that rolls it's eyes at your golden weapon
You curse and grab my throat with your free hand squeezing with all your might
Seeking to vacuum out my soul dressed in its black wedding dress
But there is no soul left
Your dismay turns to anger
Your anger into fear
As you stare in my once brown eyes
Eyes that knew love
Eyes that witnessed sacrifice
Eyes that forgave
And died
And then were reborn
King of the zombie love apocalypse
You dare run your spear through me
You dare kill Lazarus
Stay away
Run
Hide
My wrath very little known
No one has lived to speak of it
No legends exist
Just darkness
You will meet your end
Prepare. It is near
You lose
No hands free.
One on your useless spear
The other on my breathless throat
Surrender. You have no tricks left...
"Never!"you whisper ...
And lean in with your ultimate weapon
A kiss...
I die.
I breathe...
You have killed Lazarus
