embrace of a vampire
I remember the fifth of November
A night of darkness and crime
Thick clouds blackened the sky
As the world seemed frozen in time
He came out of the darkness
An entity of lasting night
Yet deep inside, he was filled with longing
His soul a void of empty light
When his fingers brushed her cheek
Her world seemed to cease
Everything became peaceful bliss
Her troubles seemed to ease
Midnight eyes drifted closed
He whispered in her ear
His voice like velvet as he said:
“My darling love, please don’t fear…
For the world has more to give
Than endless pain, and your tears”
When her eyes opened, he was gone
His voice a memory only she hears nothing.
