The Midnight Hunters from The Black and Blue Lodge

(A sad lone voice whispers)

My old love 
Loved shaking her crow blacked hair 

As old daydreams tumbled around her
Like autumn leaves in the air 

On any given day or night 

Dreams of divinity
Of God and light 

Like the first thing you see when you close your eyes at night

Temporal spaces filled with familiar faces
Crooning like nameless mockingbirds
Under a watchful moon

Dreams of us as a pair
Regale my eyes with surreal memories of us

Everywhere I now look since 
God closed that Crimson Book 

Us entwined at sea 
Surrounded by floating red roses as seagulls watched

Laughing like playful innocent school children
Free from all fears and good behaviour

But now the
Ancient Ones have called at midnight to remind me

“Those who once laid entwined in their sea as their seagulls watched 

Will soon get a visit 

From The Midnight Hunters from The Black and Blue Lodge”
