Knight of the Night

The night sky makes me wander, the highway calls…
The moonlight burns the road, sets it ablaze…
My steed looks at me and at the road it gazes…
I sigh slightly, as it neighs lightly, lest the world wake up…


The time for my conquest is at hand…
No time to stare at the barren land…
I dress for the journey, I undress…
Set aside my fear, my doubts on the ground…
Wearing only a robe of desire I mount…
For my next invasion, I have lost count…


Night after night, this druid awakens…
From its century old slumber, for a little while…
Seeking the pleasure of plundering…
Of marauding, of robbing the night…
Of its calm, of its simple rest.


Whispering, the gale sings of my crimes…
I mock them, ‘tis my revenge, I say…
My vengeance for my eternal curse…
That I shall not see the face of the day again…
The face of light, never again…
The face of my love in plain sight…
Never, never again.
