Someone Like Me

Crimson red roses bloomed at night,

In that peculiar house, the only house with a light

I looked up at the sky and saw the moon shine,

And I howled and howled as if the whole world was mine.

Was I too loud? For I saw something come out,

It was from the house’s window, a woman’s silhouette

Wearing her nightgown, she walked to the balcony,

Half man and half wolf, she was surprised to see me.

Then something unusual happened, something hard to believe,

As I saw perfectly carved horns and wings come out from her body!

“I am Angel,” she said “the only one left behind.”

“I am Alpha,” said I “the last of my kind.”

The clock struck twelve and the church bells chimed,

We said nothing else, we just stood there and smiled.

So there’s someone like me, yet nice and suave,

Someone like me, someone I love.
