The amber shadows flick
Watching out for the Nyx
In her wild imagination
She thought she was followed by an alien
Needing more of her tobacco
Out in the early hours she did go
Coming upon a stranger
She asked him for a favour
Taking home two young girls
She asked if he would take her first
Already her madness awoken
Her freedom time was broken
Months went by to pass
About him she never asked
One night asleep in her chair
She was totally unaware
The stranger entered in her house
Bent down and kissed her on the mouth
Then scared she remained
Could he come again?
For protection she did call
Was she believed? Not at all!
More months went by and did pass
Was it her imagination she did ask?
Because on that eventful night
She went back and did sleep tight
Officers again she did call out
One was slim and one was stout
They came and stayed like a social call
She didn’t think anything wrong at all
Sometimes police don’t behave as they should
And these guys were acting good
The stout one offered her all his love
Would she have him if she could?
But the other man caught her attention
Handsome he had hair of flaxen
She questioned would they be coming back
“Yes if you can prove you’r sane!” She didn’t expect that
Later to her it did occur
The officer offering her amor
Was no other than the stranger
Who on the mouth had kissed her
And the story did unfold
He had been very bold
These men had been cheating crooks
Not the real police she had mistook
And the moral to be taught
Is if alone you are caught
Identify callers to your door
And constantly make yourself secure!
