Alone

She stands alone on the cold red rocks
as the sun slowly fades away,
knowing that her mate was caught by the red fox
she looks down at her feet as she begins to cry,
hopping sadly away into their cave
wishing that she had said goodbye
she would mourn the way he always misbehaved
the black flanked Rock-wallaby knew his soul would fly.
