Poem Commentary

If you didn't understand it it's a poem of about a young girl grieving over her lovers death, to the point of her own death and being reunited with them in the end. Inspired by a girl i know.

Oh Sweet Corpse Maiden.

Dead Maiden, oh sweet girl
Sitting in her room covered with lace,
Night falls, watch her wither into dust
Never leaving the cold empty room.

Dear girl, sweet quiet dying maiden
Dressed in black. Face torn from pain.
Red drops fall from your eyes to the floor,
Forming your river of blood.

Your body aging each passing day,
Judging the reason of life
Whispers of insanity from behind the door,
Screaming for your privacy.

Poor Maiden losing her life,
For death comes to quick.
Little Maiden white eyes rotted from crying,
Skin gray and peeling.
Sickening smell crawls from the carcass of
the Dead Maiden.

Dear girl, oh beautiful maiden
Dressed in black. Standing by your window
transparent from a new life restored.
Look down below,Searching for your long lost love
See them smile. Disappear hand in hand.

Dark and emotional. Songlike. I like how you repetitively call to maiden. Like a chant. Lamenting the loss as it slowly devours her being. Enjoyed the read.
