A ballad:

Her blood runs across the cold wooden floor

Wedded husband infested with madness

Violent banging on the wooden door

Through his veins a sense of gladness

A broken heart turned sour in dreadful hate

Dead eyes hold unshed tears of lone sorrow

Crimson liquid oozing their final fate

A life is impossible to borrow

The gentle whispers of her final words

Murder, murder now tweet the morning birds
