Witching Hour
by Ela Lourenco

‘Tis almost midnight, my time draws near. Soon I will wear my one true face.
Doe brown eyes will shimmer away replaced by depthless orbs in their place.
Sister wraiths soon we will be free to show ourselves without fear.
Witching hour doth approach, our time to rule draws ever near.

Enough of pretending, hiding in plain sight.
Tonight is Samhain, on this day it is our night.
Our time to revel, to drink and kill
Our time for mayhem in any manner we will.

Some like to stab them, others to bespell
My favourite is sending them straight to hell.
I suck their souls and feast on their remains
Until my night is ended by the break of day.
