Our Trip to the Movies

You smiled. wearing your best zombie suit
Holding my hand long enough,
For the usher to see you,
And for the last time,
And for all eternity,
They slaughtered Death in front of our very eyes,
When we haven't bought the tickets to see the show

Are they worried to be kind,
In case they accidentally love a monster?
Pass me the popcorn, honey,
We're good at pretending we belong here

Come and put your head under your legs,
And see the world upside down,
With the ocean above you,
And the beach in line with your frown.

But you're smiling now.
