Message from Merc: Inspired by Interview with The Vampire

Darkness all around me

He cannot be found

There is silence all around me

Nothing makes a sound

A footstep interrupts my thoughts

He is now close to me

I welcome his presence

For he is the key

I want to be like him

A shadow in the night

Haunting those around me

Giving them a fright

But I remain a mortal

He refuses to change my soul

Claiming it's just a whim

He doesn't know this will make me whole

Or just how long I've wanted this

To become something like himself

Mistress of Evil, Queen of Darkness

I want nothing else

We argue about it all the time

For I will not give in

But unless I find another

There's no way I can win

To become part of the nght

That is all I need

He tells me it's horrendous

But it's a warning I don't heed

So finally he gives in

He makes me his very own

It's that or lose me to death

He no longer wants to be alone

I have got my wish

And now I am finally content

With my dark love

And my darker intent
