Child of the Night

I was reading Henry IV Part 1 & 2 and Henry V (Shakespeare) and this is somewhat related to the transformation of Prince Hal to Henry V; or at the very least, that's what ignited the chain of thoughts

Child of the Night (November 2010)

I miss the days when

I would howl at the Moon.

Oh child of the night

Who grew up too soon.

Who shared kinship

With Martians

And darkness

Your rogue.

Oh child of the night

How I miss you so!

The whimsical songs

That you and I sang.

Mischief we caused

When Puck and I played.

Oh child of the night 

Where have you gone?

As I sit in the Sun,

Scared and undone.
