My head was warm
My skin was soaked
I called your name
âTil the fever broke
When I awoke
The moon still hung
The night so black
That the darkness hums
I raised myself
My legs were weak
I prayed my mind
Be good to me
An awful noise
Filled the air
I heard a scream
In the woods somewhere
A woman's voice
I quickly ran
Into the trees
With empty hands
A fox it was
He shook afraid
I spoke no word
No sound he made
His bones exposed
His hind was lame
I raised a stone
To end his pain
What caused the wound?
How large the teeth?
I saw new eyes
Were watching me
The creature lunged
I turned and ran
To save a life
I didn't have
Deer in the chase
There as I flew
I forgot all prayers
Of joining you
I clutched my life
And wished it kept
My dearest love
I'm not done yet
How many years
I know I'll bare
I found something
In the woods somewhere
