It’s night time once more
\nand I’m just leaving my place
\nI’m on the prowl once more
\nfor something that will satisfy
\nmy soul<\/p>\n
It’s storming out
\nperfect
\njust heightens
\nthe desire
\nthe chase
\nthe game<\/p>\n
I know what I’m looking for
\nI know what I need
\nI also know where this night
\nwill end<\/p>\n
Dodging around puddles
\nlistening to the cracks of thunder
\nthat fill me with such yearning
\nI’m almost there<\/p>\n
There it is-
\nmy destination is that door
\nhardly noticed
\nnon-descript, ordinary
\ndoor<\/p>\n
Three knocks and I’m in
\nmy coat has been taken
\nand I’ve been shown my table
\nin the corner, quiet
\nprivate<\/p>\n
“What will it be tonight Ma’am?”<\/p>\n
I barely glance-
\nI’m not in the mood for
\na drink<\/p>\n
“The usual.” I snap
\nand he runs off, eager to
\ndo my bidding<\/p>\n
“Hello, Ma’am” He waits quietly
\nfor my attention
\nMy look
\nMy instruction<\/p>\n
I glance at him
\nHe’s cute
\nIn an adorable way
\nSelf assured
\nconfident
\nbut a little too cocky
\nand I know how to deal
\nwith him.<\/p>\n
“You’ll do. Follow.”
\nstanding up we left<\/p>\n
Outside the rain is lighter now
\nthe terms have been agreed on
\nand the payment exchanged
\nthis is where the night will end<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
