John King Ayanfe Poet Free verse

I'D Marry Death

In my next life, i'd marry death
I want to be husband to the terminator of breath
I'd pamper her to know no dearth
Feed her with all my love even far above earth

I'd drench her with romance, caressings and kisses
Soak her with sensual honey with my romantic prowess
Fill her heart with my ecstatic sweetness
I'd marry death to salvage humanity from darkness

In this present life i live in so far
Death has been the greatest foe so far
Isn't she married? Is she a widow? Or a spinster
Each time she feel lonely, she plucks man like guava

In my next life, i'd marry death
To keep her away from darkening earth
That no man should know grave taking breath
I'd marry death to deprive every man the casket

If death was shown enough love, perhaps she'd be considerate
Dirge, threnody and epitaph would have no rate
We all have loved ones we've lost; death's inconsiderate
Before my next life, i hold death now as fate

Beata Agustin November 18, 2022 at 2:08 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your perspective about death; nonetheless, there's life after death in God. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. God bless you.
