Interview with my Vampire

It was a dark night, no moon, no stars, all alone Only my vampire to accompany me into the night So quiet he was, so lovely his smile His gentle touch full of life, he took me in his arms

He questioned my existence, he asked me why So calm his words, such delight his scent He seduced me into my reciting the accounts of my life I left nothing untouched

Interview with my vampire on this night He held me close to a single heart felt light I was light as a feather in his arms Hearing my story he took my life

A moment Divinity Sensuality Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Interview with my vampire, my only audience A single soul to witness me A moment with the keeper of my life A divine friend at my side A sensual knowing to feeling my existence Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Interview with my vampire is near its end The glow of dawn is soon upon us Gently my feet touch the ground He walks with me into the sunlight

6 juin 2020 Chanson / Poème du jour — Entretien avec mon vampire

C’était une nuit sombre, pas de lune, pas d’étoiles, tout seul Seul mon vampire pour m’accompagner dans la nuit Il était si calme, si charmant son sourire Son toucher doux plein de vie, il m’a pris dans ses bras

Il a remis en question mon existence, il m’a demandé pourquoi Calme ses mots, ravit son parfum Il m’a séduit dans ma récitation des récits de ma vie Je n’ai rien laissé intacte

Entretien avec mon vampire cette nuit Il me tenait près d’un seul cœur sentait la lumière J’étais léger comme une plume dans ses bras En entendant mon histoire, il m’a pris la vie

Un instant Divinité Sensualité Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Entretien avec mon vampire, mon seul public Une seule âme pour me témoigner Un moment avec le gardien de ma vie Un ami divin à mes côtés Un savoir sensuel pour ressentir mon existence Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Hmm, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

L’interview avec mon vampire touche à sa fin La lueur de l’aube est bientôt sur nous Mes pieds touchent doucement le sol Il marche avec moi dans la lumière du soleil
