Ghostly Lovers

I wasn't about ghost goblins or Ghouls I thought Halloween was for kids and fools Then one October much to my surprise I watched from a gravesite a spirit rise He came towards me my body just froze. He flowed into my mouth down to my toes. I could hear his voice from inside my head He said this is the evening of the undead Just Twenty-Four hours to meet his love Heading to lovers point high up above Many years ago, he jumped to Death Distraught by the loss of sweet Mary Beth I could not resist we went where he went Towards a beauty a gift heaven sent Long auburn hair and a pretty smile So very close yet more than a mile My heart started beating, sweat on my brow His feelings of passion my mind cried out wow Before I could touch her he went his way They flew off together their time to play Happy Halloween to Lovers.
