Calliope is spreading in the sky

She's riding a horse from planets to stars

Of clouds and dust made

Hooves beating the wind, is the Mare

I have been told about many stories

A handful of sand, forging dreams

The wraith that creeps in your mind at night

He's incorporeal, you cannot fight

You let yourself willingly sink

But this one is different

Her hair made of shadow strings

Her spidery fingers of a dozen rings

Her skin a tinted glass in jet black

From her hands around my throat she wraps

Have I ever told you I loved you?

As she creeps in I need to

Touch your skin

Tell you I love you

"I love you"

I know deep down you'd have pet the mare

Shadow-made but still, you'd make a pair

Your dream

My night

Mare
