A chill in the air awoke him 

And he pulled his blankets tight

The booze was running strong

It had been a good night

 

He felt sick and tried to sleep again

Relaxed and breathed a sigh

The room was dark and silent

And he could still taste the rye

 

He laid there dazed and lazy

But something was not right

He felt the need to investigate

The darkness in that night

 

He sat up and rubbed his eyes

And looked over at his side

When he didn’t see her

A fear crept up inside

 

He knew something was wrong

She is never up this late

Now his curiosity

Would make him investigate

 

He strained his ears to listen 

Hoping he could hear her

But couldn’t hear a thing

Only his heart beating fear

 

He stood up and walked to the door

And pause one more time

Again he heard no sound

But saw a dull lights shine

 

It came from downstairs somewhere

And he knew she must be here

He went down the stairs to find her

And grab another beer

 

He went down the stairs slowly

And turned the corner to the hall

Took two steps to the kitchen

Two steps that was all

 

He stopped and stood silent

His body frozen in shock

His mind trying to comprehend

As time ticked off the clock

 

He watched the look of pleasure

The passion in her eye

As she took everything he had

And gave it to another guy

 

His body began to tremble

His emotions ran hot 

He was going to kill them

Right there on the spot

 

He walked into the kitchen

And tried to grab a knife

He wasn't going to listen

Just going to take their life

 

They heard him open drawers

And panic filled the air

They were caught red handed

But could only just stand there

 

He screamed at them and threatened

smashed everything in sight

This was it for them

He would deal with this tonight

 

She tried to walk up and grab him

But something held her in place

She knew something was wrong

By the pain on his face

 

He fell down on the floor

Overwhelmed with grief

He knew it was too much

He would find no relief

 

The pain was too much for him

And he began to fade

The anger in his blood

Spilling out along his blade

 

All the screams became silent 

And he felt no more fear

This day would never shine on him

For he would not be here

 

He prayed the dark would come

And take him away

He would not have to feel this

For even one lonely day 

 

His body shook and he knew

That his time was near

When she came to hold him 

And whispered in his ear

 

I’m sorry love, you know I am

Please don’t leave me now

I’m so sorry, please don’t die

I'll make it up some how

 

She told the man to call for help

And tried to save his life

His last words to her were

I wanted you to be my wife
