Lady Midnight

I came by myself to very crowded place I was looking for someone who had lines in her face I found her there but she was past all concern I asked her to hold me, I said, Lady, unfold me, But she scorned me and told me I was dead and I would never return. Well,I argued all night like so many have before Saying,Whatever you give me I seem to need so much more. Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor She said,Don't try to use me or slyly refuse me Just win me or lose me, it is this that the darkness is for. I cried,'Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old, Stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold If we cry now,she said, It will just be ignored. So I walked through the morning, the sweet early morning I could hear my lady calling, You've won me, you've won me,my lord.
