DEAR

I want to sleep with the living,

To tell them it's alright.

It's scary – death,

*But I make for good company.

 

When I sleep, you are safe.

So you should hold me close.

Rest easy as you pray

That morning stays away*|

 

This time I shouldn't wake

And the night will be so long

Vampires in every sense

Begging just to be|

 

Alive

Living

In fear

           Is all that's left

DEAR
