The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I roam the streets late at night, after bars have closed.

The sites I see are for MY eyes. Drunks and lovers posed.

I walk the streets brushing by those hanging by a thread.

I walk the streets lingering on those off to find a bed.

I ask a man why he's soaked in whiskey, beer and sweat.

"I lost my girl to another man," he slurs to me" and yet,

I still love her. Stupid me, I thought she could feel the same.

I haven't had enough to drink cause I still feel the pain."

I ask him why he drowns himself in alcoholic sadness.

He asks "What else can I do, but mourn my damned life's ashes?"

I ask a couple why they cling so desperate to one another.

" I left mine, and she left her's so we could be together.

We cling this way so we won't lose the moments passion so soon."

I shake my head as they walk away. I know the morning's doom.

I continue on to finish off my round of late night wandering.

To be continued...
