Rancid breath reminiscent of rot
Ominously obscured
Laying in wait, patiently
Lurking under your bed

Lured by the promise of treasures,
the rat’s eyes shine bright
Unveiling secrets,
hidden in midnightfall’s cover
Seeking fortune of adventure,
heart racing in anticipation
Happiness not found in gold or greed,
but in the thrills on the path

Eager hearts probe
Melding together
Basking in the warmth of affection
Resonating with shared emotions
Aching for the next touch
Clutching tightly; not letting go
Enclapsed in lingering longing
