Empty suitcase
Empty suitcase in the hall
Beckoning her to freedom
But where will she choose to go
Now the doors are wide open
Lucky as the black cat is
It envelopes her with fear
To liberate these shackles
Leaves her bereft and broken
The black cat sauntered swiftly
To the paradise beyond
Left behind a grieving wife
Emancipation unknown
