The Vampire

I'm a night creature

Lurking in your bed

Helping myself to your beer

Hanging out in your home


I like my comfort,

That you take care of me

I use sweet words and honey

So that you do everything for me


Words are so cheap

But you believe in them

So, you call me sweet and great

I'm the king


I test your limits

Trespassing a bit

Pushing a tad

Backing off if you balk


How much can I get?

How little can I give?

It's quite the game

It's thrilling


The more I deceive you

The more I cheat you

The better I feel

The better I win
