In the middle of the night
I woke with a fright
From the midst of my dream
I heard a loud scream
I jumped out of bed
And found my wife dead
My heart started to pound
At this find I had found
With a knife in her heart
It gave me a start
To find blood on my hands
Like stepping in quicksand
My stomach dropped out
As I looked about
I saw into the mirror
And it was suddenly clear
I'd killed my wife,
The love of my life.
