On widowhood

Don’t look at me, I’m a scarred up soul –
My heart has been stolen,
I’ve got a huge black hole
Where it used to be. I’m deaf, I’m cold!

He took my soul so long ago,
That horrid dreadful vicious man,
Without a soul where could I go?
So, I kept roaming this lonely land.

Yet still sometimes a blast of vision
Stops me on my worn out track:
To go with him was my decision,
There was a moment to turn back.

And now don’t ever look
At me for I’m but a form of shadow,
My vibrant soul that he took
Is buried with him in that summer meadow.
