A Failed Incantation
Meet me by candlelight
Call my name three times at midnight
Conjur up the hidden souls
Hands pressed firmly behind these walls
The moonlight exposing nature’s recluse
Within the fog spirits run loose
You do not know the power you toy with
Folklore never made you afraid of this myth
When at the witching hour
You hope the spirits will accept your dour
“Oh spirits, hear my plea!”
As they hide around corners mocking you with glee
Attempting to play a god
But those behind the veil call you a fraud
And now is released an evilness
Due to a silly eagerness
To satisfy a lonely desire
Your once green eyed girl you want to aquire
Now these ghosts forever haunt you at night
All the while clinging to a lost love so tight
