The leaves swiftly swayed in the wind
As he calmly walked through them
Not a sound was heard throughout
No crushing leaves or break of a stem
The stars shine bright like diamonds
In the night sky the moon is the only light
But he needed it to be dark
He couldn't do the job if it were bright
He stumbled steadily across the trail
His feet making quite light imprints
But he still kept trotting on
His skin still at a chalkboard black tint
The moon almost setting now
But he was almost there
The coffin was set up already
At the top of hells stair
The sun almost up now
But he found the body in the clear
His wife hanging from the tree
The only thing he had left was fear
His calm walk stopped suddenly
And he hung the rope parallel to her
And stepped closer to end like her
And this time it would be for sure
