A Valentine's Date
I remember asking you for a date
And your reply being a quick "yes"!
Oh my nerves were in such a state
When I saw you in that red dress.
Could it be love at first sight?
Is that what I am feeling?
Something is eerie tonight...
My head seems to be reeling.
Your eyes seem to sparkle and shine
As I look into their pools of blue.
Hmmmm...could it just be the wine?
Valentine...do I really know you?
The longer I sit and look at you,
The more confused I become...
Oh no, what shall I do?
Do you really have a forked tongue?
I blink my eyes many times,
Trying to clear that awful vision.
I look around the room for signs...
Was this date a terrible decision?
Slowly my eyes again focus,
My oh my! You surely have changed!
Where are those beautiful eyes?
Where'd you get those awful fangs?!?
This cannot be happening to me.
How did a werewolf get in here?
I fight hard to hold back a scream.
Oh no!! She's nibbling on my ear!
Slowly and carefully I pull away
And begin running for the door!
I've got to leave...get away!
I really can't take this any more!!
Running down the deserted street
My thoughts are such a mess...
God don't let me be her midnight treat!
And...how'd she fit into that dress?
She is closing in on me...
I can't seem to get ahead!
Just as I feel her grab me,
I awaken...I am in my bed!!
The calendar shows it's Valentine's Day.
Oh my, tonight I have a blind date!
I think it may be safe to say...
This is one date that has to wait!!
