This poem is still very much in progress and I would love your critique.

and the title is still open so if you have any alternative suggestions

Shallow Grave


I can imagine
Laying down on the grass a blazing green
The stars looking down in jealousy
Your melting glare meets the surface of mine
Our love sets fire to the skyline tonight

relax, you knew it was going to come to this
down on one knee, ring sparkling in bliss
sweating,heart dancing, eyes blink, in an exotic glow
she accepts the gift, I'm losing control

Chastity Why'd you pick me.

I can see
A bachelors party entrapped in a bar
never wore a tuxedo in a bar before
the population raise their glass to the sky
say "heres to you a really great guy"
But I wonder

And that night we be in a lustfully lit room
Brittle, we enter the tomb
Theres something in the air a betrayal to remember
they say a lovers first night lasts forever

chastity why'd you pick me

and I can see a blood soaked blade in my hand
and you dying, buried on the floor
screaming unbearably, forever without control
but you will forever be ignored

and I can see myself miles away in a secret affair
and in a shallow grave, you will never be aware
They say that a lovers first night lasts forever
but after that it doesn't amount to much.

chastity you picked me

So I will continue to climb

alone
