You have penned a love story, author. Yet, I can't help to wonder if your title is wrong, for they left the world together, one first and the other a few hours later. I love my wife, but we'll wait on each other before being joined. We're getting cremated. :)

Thank you for taking the time to read. I struggled with the title, to be honest. I wasn't sure if it worked, but I didn't have another title that came to mind.
Comment from patricia dillon
This is rather gruesome. Would anyone really go to such lengths? But Indian widows used to commit suttee in their husband's funeral pyre so I suppose it is not unheard of.

Unfortunately it is not unheard of. Sometimes losing the one you love can make you do crazy things.

Thank you so much. I hope I didn't give you nightmares just a bit of an uneasy feeling that lasted a while.
Comment from pome lover
well, just looking at the logistics, the casket wouldn't have been left at the cemetery out in the open like that, so even if she were suicidal enough to do such a thing, it would have been impossible. and she wouldn't have fit, either. But I give you a 5 for originality.

Some caskets are pretty roomy, but I understand where you are coming from. For all the reader knows, she could be lost inside her own mind doing this. It could be real or a metaphor.

ah. could be.
Comment from jessizero
This was so sad and a little sweet, but mostly morbid. You did tell a compelling story in just fifty words, so that's impressive. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Interesting entry for the 50 Word Story writing prompt contest. It's creepy. Being buried alive is horrible thought.
The story grabbed my interest. The dialogue is believable. And the characters seem real. I would you recommend it.

Comment from lancellot
Hmm, this is very moving. It is a short tale that tells a complete story in only fifty word. It has meaning, weight and makes an emotional appeal through the actions of it's "named" main character. Just enough is shown and told to the reader.

Oh my gosh this is so creepy! Initially I laughed...then I said, "eeew". Then I laughed again.
Anyways, this is a great piece of horror and should do well. I enjoyed it!

This was interesting and an usual way to show love, rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also read well and Flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
Thanks for sharing this and good luck with your contest entry.
