As I walk down this dark pathway,
seeking out my mortal prey.
I think upon how things have changed,
since my day turned into forever night.
I'm forever haunted by the silent screams.
I see in each humans eyes,
as I suck their life giving blood from them,
their veins absorb within my mind all of,
their life experiences, emotions, hopes,
dreams, the essence of who they are.
Each time I walk among the humans,
I wander ever so closely to dangers face.
for there is one who hunts me endlessly,
forever trying to catch me,
off guard and unaware.
He is my enemy throughout time.
He carries a wooden stake in hand,
to plunge within my breast.
A slayer who's sole purpose in life,
is to kill those of my kind.
He's always looking for my lair,
and seeking my death.
I long for that which I cannot have,
The sun upon my face.
Forever it seeks my death,
if I give into its embrace.
I am an immortal being for my time here on earth,
As wonderful as that may be to some,
For me it is a curse for I cannot love,
Nor have it returned alone I shall ever be.
For what good is immortality,
if there is not one to share it with.
With all the centuries I have seen,
not one loving touch has caressed my face.
I walk alone down this dark path,
staying in the shadows.
slaying humans just so I can survive.
I continue on through the centuries,
always alone and forever in the darkness.
I have no friends to share my life,
nor love to share my burden.
No one sees me or knows I am there,
to them I am just the wind.
They see a candle flame flicker,
or a curtain blowing in the window.
Before they realize what is happening,
their heart stops beating forever.
Human blood is the only
thing that keeps me alive,
I do not take it with pleasure,
but only to survive.
I watch and wait in the shadows
for a chance to take my prey.
choosing my victim carefully
I walk towards him very softly.
I lure a man to his death
deceiving him with my mind,
I seize control over him
then take away his life.
Never did he know his pleasure
would end his life this night,
I made it seem like in a dream
without knowing he would die.
I would trade this immortality at once,
if only I could have someone to,
love & them love me in return.
I want to embrace and love a man,
without the kiss of death upon my lips.
The life of an immortal being,
is nothing without love.
There can be no love without,
death's kiss in this immortal life.
Do not wish for an immortal life,
for with it comes a curse.
