The Night Mistress


The Day fades
Darkness Prevails
The Angels trumpet is in full bloom
Jasmine lingers

Life force spent
In daily pursuit.
My eyes fail me
A yawn infects me.

Lurking in the shadows
She reveals herself.
Shrouded in beauty
Dark and mysterious.

Her presence comforts
She is inevitable.
I cannot run from her gaze
She shall have her prey.

Pale skin,
Soft features,
Gentle green eyes.
I loose myself.

Conscious lost
Reality slips back into focus.
Fighting against the current
Nyx observes this game.

Lurking in my mind
I feel the need to surrender.
Keeping her at arms length
I waste time in this realm.

My eyes start to to close.
I see a vision of her
Mystery forgotten, truth revealed
She glides towards me.

My defence has been breached.
She speaks directly to my soul.
I cannot resist her advances.
I'm drowning in her glance.

I have nothing to fear.
She has become dear.
She is my one constant
My companion in the darkness

I fall into her warm embrace.
We fall forever together
I am safe
I am sound
I am asleep.
