My head was warm, My skin was soaked. I called your name 'til the fever broke. When I awoke The moon still hung. The night so black that the darkess hummed. 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 words, no sound he made. His bone exposed, His hind was lame. I raised a stone to end his pain. What caused the wound? how large the teeth? I sure knew eyes were watching me. The creature lunged. I turned and ran To save a life I didn't have. Deer in the chase Thereas I flew 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 bear I found something in the woods somewhere
