Standing there, unshed tears, sadness stroking my heart

Numb to the world, thoughts a strewn, confusion blight and bleary

Watching the woman, in the casket, shaking as we part

What could I do, to overcome this, when all I feel is weary

Dead and gone, a victim of the night, affronted to the day

All that's left of her is memories, as I turned and walked away
