I lie awake
Listening to my inner thoughts before I drift to sleep
My feminine side craving a touch I've been neglected
The careful cradling hugs of a mother
Sweet caresses of a courtship
Passion filled memories of friends
Surreal storybook love that could take me by surprise

Reading books of chopped heads and bloody capes
White stained with dark red lather
Pleather dusters, vile cannibals, and everlasting memories
Some filled with sorrow, some with agony, but mostly with

Dreams of you
The dark knight
Come to ride me away
Bring me to a better land
Alone with you.
