Listen

It's time to let it go
life passed by a long
time ago.  It went by 
so slow.

I want to stay, you're not
listening to a word I say.
HEY! HEY!  it's Sunday.
It's this way at noon 
again.  I need this and I
need that;  the smallest
voice screams at me:

It's enough!  Look at you, 
with your toys and baubles.
Where are you going with
that?  Oh;  now it's a hat
with bells ringing:  cling,
clang, clat.

The cars are rolling.  I need
change.  Taking corners,
following jumping waves,
bye, bye.  Sitting, smelling,
what's a nose for?  

I can tell you know anyway;  it's
time to leave before moontime
comes.  I pray for hours before
the sun using sculptered sand;
the sun stays away rolling tides
of cars spanning the bridge till
I go astray.

Our Thirst Is Strong

When shades of night are drawn to close
As the sun descends to darken the way
I am awakened, no more in repose
For I slept through each sun shined day

I dreamed of when my eyes would open
And too, of the hour, when we would meet
To then fly from here, my hidden coffin
To taste of you, my love, my sweet

This vampire loves his mortal mate
I have nothing but time to wait, so I wait

As our lover’s moon then so ascends
We’ll meet there by the garden gate
With feelings strong, dare not pretend
I’ll wait for you, do not be late

The scent of you, I smell for miles
The taste of you, my love, is rare
As every thought of you, inspires smiles
For I, I fall victim to your stare

So true, you make this vampire weak
But, for love my dear, t’is you I seek
