Do not come calling tonight.
Terrifying dreams resurrected from fears so real.
My shadow dancer always in a fight.
Dark musings of my subconscious, hidden from the daylight.
My secret garden of veiled disquiet knows how I feel.
Do not come calling tonight.
Dreams that leave me with screams and upright.
In the darkness of the night my demon’s debut in full view.
My shadow dancer always in a fight.
Nightly battles render me languid despite,
Long hours of manifested worries on the peel.
Do not come calling tonight.
Tis too much to ask for a peaceful dream of delight?
My life is not so full of dangerous pursue.
My shadow dancer always in a fight.
Nay, vampire of fears like slippery eels,
Suck visions of beauty, leaving scenes blood red hues.
Do not come calling tonight.
My shadow dancer always in a fight.

Tonight I am far away. I fear vampiric dreams are about this night. Rest well, I surely hope.
It's intensely evocative and so dark! I loved it!
Wonderfully dark
What strange creatures we are, indeed, to dance with shadows! Well-wrought!
This was so dark and poignant! I loved it so much!
Excellent!
