Veins through dark skin

 You looked cold sitting across me,

Quivering shivering and praising,

Your veins throbbing through your 

Dark skin, you seemed old sitting across me

Yet you regaled me with tales,

Clearly interested, clearly becoming,

Clearly not taking no for an answer.

It wasn't like you were selling me insurance,

Well of the future may be and I played along,

Stringing word into word, Melody into melody,

Creating symphony with hope you would

Give me a chance to be showered with praises.

You sat there hoping I would give you a chance

To have the last dance, but that's reserved only for

My old man: The true gold with throbbing veins

Through dark skin: And so our night ended and

Day began.
