Replying to a comment on:
The Morning Star (Lyric) by Shardik
I met her at the Cross roads.
It was well past 2:00.
She said, "Where you going boy?"
Like she already knew?
She was dressed for a funeral,
but sure looked fine
I didn't dare ask who's
Cause it felt like mine.
She said, "Won't you join me
for a midnight drive?"
To which I did.
To which I did.
She smelled like a graveyard,
But shined as the Sun.
She handed me a business card,
and said, "Are you down for some fun?"
But there was no # just a name,
"The Morning Star".
The Morning Star.
And I tasted sulphur.
When I spoke her name.
She asked, "If I'd make a wager,
to have wealth and fame."
She offered me a guitar.
That she kept in the trunk.
Said that, "It was made in Hell
by a most sinful monk.
She asked me if I "Played?",
knowing damn well I did.
I said, "I might,
if the price was right."
(But I had already lost my soul
In a previous fight.)
"I don't have no money,
a job, or a home.
I'm just a Gypsy Bard.
Born to sing and roam.
She said, "Well that's fine,
yes, that's quite fine.
I'll still make you mine."
And she did, the Morning Star.
The Morning Star.
