The Hallow Pact (Halloween)

(Whispered)

In death we promised never to part,

Now moonlight binds what broke our hearts...

I dug through dirt, through prayer, through sin,

Just to feel your breath again…

A thousand candles, crimson smoke,

I whispered spells the dead evoke.

You said you'd wait beyond the veil,

I tore it down — I would not fail.

The sky split open, stars went black,

And something whispered, “She won’t come back…”

(Softly, from the dark)

But I did, my love — I heard your cry,

The grave released what should’ve died.

You kissed my lips — they tasted frost,

Each touch a sin, each sigh a cost.

The night grew full of muffled screams,

Your warmth awoke my hunger’s dreams.

You fed me hope, but hope decays,

And hunger loves in darker ways...

We signed in blood beneath the moon,

A hollow vow, a lover’s rune.

Your heart beats wild — mine beats no more,

Yet still we dance through death’s dark door.

Our love defied the grave, the sky —

Now all must feed for love to survive…

Your hands are cold, your eyes so wide,

You smile while mortals run and hide.

You said “eternal,” I heard “free,”

But now the monster stares through me.

Each soul we claim, each scream we share,

Your laughter lingers in the air.

This isn’t life — it’s love possessed,

My bride of blood — my cursed caress.

(Hauntingly)

You gave me life — I gave you death,

Our vows now sealed in every breath.

The gods looked down — they turned away,

Love’s not divine… it’s just decay.

We signed in blood beneath the moon,

A hollow vow, a lover’s rune.

The world will burn, the stars will fade,

But hearts like ours refuse the grave.

You loved me once — now love is hunger,

You’re not my savior — you’re my younger…

(Whispered overlapping lines)

Man: “You were my everything…”

Female: “You were my offering…”

Man: “What have I done?”

Female: “What you always desired —”

Both: “To be together… forever expired.”

So dance with me, my fallen dove,

Through ash and ruin, pain and love.

The pact we made was never fair —

For you came back… and I’m still there.
