Dear Mortician,

.

By CotardDelusionzPublished about 5 hours ago 1 min read

Perform your work

Like a musician

On my carcass

That lays on the bed

Uncover my head

Cover my scars of dread

Rid me of the look of death

Make me look like I'm just in a peaceful rest

Pretty me up

Till I'm something you can stand looking at

Be my last affection

And let me feel your lips

Against my cold skin

Leave them there

Till all their warmth has left into my body

So, I can feel as if you cherish me
