on her deathbed

                                 - she will ask
was i the wife you wanted - was i
a good wife to you - please lie and
tell her she was - this is what she has

what she had - do not hurt her out of
pain - pain you caused by inadmissible
hearsay - let the sin be on us - i can

stand it - an easy thing to bear - in fact
in the big picture of my sin - this is but
a drop, gently swiped off by the west wind that is in my life
