The faint of heart need not read the Vampire prose…the rest should be fine for everyone.  Click on a poem to read it, and enjoy the darkness of the recesses of my mind!  hehe

*********************************************************

 

THE VAMPIRE

 

I walk the night alone

Not a soul for a friend

And more enemies than

Even ten mortals could ever handle.

I am evil,

The kind that stays.

I know no God,

Nor do I know a Devil.

I only roam the earth,

A centuries old vampire,

Whom no one loves

And everyone hates.

 

True I’ve had my allies,

But my enemies destroyed them.

True, I’ve had my loves,

But no one ever loved me.

 

I am a soul with no purpose

Who must kill.

A soul trapped on this earth,

Unable to leave,

And unable to stay.

 

I am immortal.

 

******************************************************

 

THE KILL

 

Walking through the streets

Unsuspecting, safe

Feeling a chill in the air

Knowing someone is there

But seeing nothing

 

Walking faster now

Weary, yet safe still

Feeling a shiver

Looking for me

But seeing no one

 

I appear suddenly

A scream escapes

A tight embrace

I bow my head, sinking in

Pain, and I drink deep

 

Red hot blood flows

My veins burn

Each heartbeat

Resounds in my ears

Drowning the screams

And bringing me peace

 

The heart slows

The drums cease

I finish my feast

Look down at such beauty

And drop you to the ground

 

I walk on

 

***********************************************************

 

CONFUSION

 

Thoughts run wild

The world spins

I love her

I love him

She is my life

He is my world

She is the one

He is something

I don’t understand

The mind is cloudy

The feelings in fog

Love and emotion

Leads to

Confusion

 

*******************************************************

 

MADNESS

 

I love

I hate

I want to scream

To lash out

I want to cry

I want to die

I want to live

I wonder shy

A man

A woman

My children

Love

Curse it all

Curse them all!

But most of all

Curse me!

 

**********************************************

 

TRAPPED

 

Trapped in a cage

Of my own design

Led her by lies

Bound here by truth

I watch, and wait

For my escape

 

***********************************************

 

DESPAIR

 

My soul lies in a dark abyss

Seeing no light

Hearing no sound

Feeling no joy

My world remains in perpetual night

Patiently waiting to see the dawn

I long for a blessed hero to save me

And pull me from my well of despair

Heartache and pain welcomes me

Holding me, unwilling to let go

I am cal, at complete peace

Yet I long for life

 

*************************************************

 

We will all die

Don’t you see?

Life cannot continue

Forever, until the end of time

Oh yes, we will all die

It will just be you

Before me!

 

****************************************************

 

THE CLOUD

 

Happiness overwhelms me

Yet a cloud appears

Blocking the sunshine

A  man

Tall, dark, and brooding

The sun shines through

Love and laughter surround me

Yet the cloud remains

A love turned sour

A battle waging war

I long for peace

And receive none

 

******************************************************

 

LOST LOVE

 

My soul is black

As the night sky above

I think of you

My lost, sweet love

The need to hold you

In a tight, loving embrace

Gnaws at my heart

And eats my thoughts

An angry monster

Rejected and wandering

Leaving me empty

And without peace
