The Last Duchess:
Haunted
Listen here, you filthy scum!
Now, even in death I swear
To bring along my presence near
In absence of the human flesh
Cast in the curse of your deceit
Pretended, in my faith you did
Forgotten all I had for you
Spilt in my blood, your name is left
Eternally to scream in pain
Your face forever will be haunted
In shadows of my memory
Soulless, in hatred you will suffer
Sweetheart, oh there’s more to offer
But I won’t cos’ I have won
In death I loved you and I will
Promise you to never leave
Your presence as long as you live
Tormented, lost and never found
My twisted, loved and haunted husband.
Nice curse - I'm scared! Like the illustration very much!
