So quick backstory, I had to write this poem for English class last week and it's from an actual short story, it is not my own! It is not supposed to rhyme so please don't get on me because of that! I don't remember the original title or the author... but if I find it I'll put it in here.
Thank you!

The open window
The open square
Patches of blue sky
The delicious breath of rain
Near her
The notes of a distant song
Young
With a fair, calm face
A dull stare in her eyes
There she would live for herself
"Free, free, free"
Wild abandonment
The storm of grief
All aquiver
Had spent itself
In a very elixir of life
A sob came up into her throat
Her husband's death
A paralized inability
A quick prayer
A feverish triumph in her eyes
She died of heart disease
Of joy that kills
