Nicely revisites the issue and popularity of young romance and death. As a oldster and survivor, I can honestly tell you the romance and glory of death, especially suicide, is instantaneously fleeting. People quickly move on and forget about you. My advise, stick around for a while, get really popular, and in turn give her a really good reason to cry when delivering your eulogy. I've seen too many pretty young faces in coffins over the years...such a waste.

I'm with Chris on this one. Great write, too.

Having read nearly all of your poetry I can say with authority this is one of your best. Great use of contrasts to ask a question common to most of us mortals.
