Till Death Do Us Part

As I stare into the sunset

I witness a kind of relief.

I finally quenched my desire,

I've stuck to my belief.

The ripples near my feet,

blur out her treacherous face.

As she descends into the depths,

at a slow awkward pace.

The water has a tinge of red,

I think the veins are free.

It's almost time for sunset,

there's nobody there to see.

Her pain reminds me of my own;

her suffering soothes my heart.

Then on the sand, I wrote the words;

"Till Death do us part."
