What a Night
With peering eyes and wanting heart
I stared right through your window
You undressed right in front of me
Somehow I felt that you’d know
But yet you had gone further
As clothes fell to the floor
I then thought I would
die, because I
wanted more
Then, your
light went off,
and you were still right
there, I had seen you in the
shadows, you called me, I could
swear. But as I got close enough to
climb in to the room, I felt a pain most
shockingly as you hit me with your broom.
I fell down the two stories, wishing I could
fly, But then I hit the ground, then I wished
that I would die. Feeling then came back
to my aching arms and feet. When your
backdoor then opened and your
rottweiler came to eat.
Oh, dear me
and oh
dear my
that dog came
running fast. I had
hoped that I’d run faster
or simply just outlast, But he had
gotten a hold of me and bit down very
tight. That’s when I asked myself, why’d
I come out here this night. No answer came
upon me until you showed your face, You
pulled the dog then from me, the night
was not a waste. For then you felt
a bit sorry as you helped
me to my feet. I
then introduced
myself to the girl
I had longed to meet.
