vampire

Fall into my arms and hold me tight

I feel your hatred shift at the speed of light

Sleep child and let me be

I’m just sucking you dry in the name of empathy

this is endgame

This is endgame.

I’m living it now.

I’m not crashing through roadblocks.

I’m staring at them in wonder.

How did they get here ?

Why now ? Why ever ?

This is endgame

Life as it is not as supposed

I’m weaving my last delicate lie

I’m dancing one last time

It doesn’t matter how I got here

Not now. Not ever.

This is endgame

Loaded dice and a rigged table

I’m done with the delicate dance

At one with the delicate dance

Failure is the only option

Now and forever
