Third Place

Inspired by the song Strange World By Iron Maiden, 1980 in my dream I am lost wondering if I have crossed the moon shines on shrouds in a sky swirling with clouds I am beautiful in this eerie place my mind is tranquil and full of grace the cemetery is now dawn blown clouds welcome a mauve yawn I am weeping for love past I am searching each tomb as black birds fill this place with gloom who is that following . . . a vampire man if not a dream I would have ran a church seems to beckon to me oh, is he in there . . . is my desperate plea I enter and whisper can you hear me dear my painted red lips tremble with fear I am weeping for a love gone, grieving now I am leaving . . . with eyes as blue as a sky azure blue . . .
