IN THE NIGHT

The Vampires are out.
You must beware.
Unseen, unheard...
with their cold, icy stare.

Quiet...shhhhhhh...
Listen, in the night.
If you are quick, and alert,
You might glimpse a sight.

Taking and feeding on,
Whomever they like.
Blood flows freely...
In the cold depths of night.

Beware, my child.
Listen to me.
It is better for you,
If you want to stay free.

Don't wander at night.
Stay to the day.
If you don't, you'll regret it,
And become their prey.
