A young fellow,

Tall and mellow,

7 looking 14.

He talks to spirit,

Of the one who hid it,

Her emotions from her lover.

She killed herself,

On her wedding day,

Because she felt,

Empty everyday.

Never knew why,

At the end of it all,

She couldn't stop the cry,

And feeling sad and all.

She told young boy Christopher,

To tell her sweet lover,

She was sorry for hurting a young brother,

Instead of keeping the promise,

He grew up one day,

Still being haunted by the one who been slain,

Found a pretty girl,

Put a ring on her finger,

And on their wedding day she did exactly what the ghost had indentioned,

So he had to keep his promise to the dead girl before,

His future wife took her life be no more,

Who was the daughter of the man whom she loved,

Who needed to hear from his fiancé above,

Who was the mother of Christopher's girl,

Worth more to her parents than diamonds and pearls,

Who felt just as empty as her mother had to say,

Christopher's promise to tell,

Saved her daughter from coming to that Hell.
