Now Alone | Vampyres Only

Poetry

The empty weariness settle over me.
I am tired and alone.
You have left me now and forever.

Sweet city in the sky or the eternal inferno within.
I cannot decide where it is you've gone, where it is I'll follow to.

Surely it must be hell for the life you inflicted on me.
Yet surely it must be heaven for the ecstasy you envoked in me.

Was it you that said, one never walks the path to heaven but is carried there on the wings on righteousness.

Yet one must walk the pathes to hell to know what living is.
I've seen most people as they're dragged through life.

But those of us, the few and damned, have walked through life erect.
You gave me that and so much more.

And all that I am I owe to you.

So what now?

Of all the things you taught me, to be with out you wasn't one.
Do I have nothing now?

Surely I am bolder still to deal with gruesome tidings.
To deal with the smoldering glacial plains of my mountainous emotions.

All left in the wake of your passing.
I am tired and alone, yet you still have walked with me.

Will it be this way, forever?

A necrophile, rapist, and killer, Peter Kürten targeted almost any vulnerable person. His mild manner charmed women and children alike, and in his confession, he claimed that he got his start when a neighbor taught him how to torture animals. He learned to stab them to death while he was raping them.

A Bloody Embrace

for centuries I've searched
wandered the beaten path
been led astray..and for what?
Who would dare deny the vampire's immortal kiss?
a sacred embrace
I will hold the colour of your eyes when no other remembers your name
your legacy written in my heart

Why vampires have fangs

You're cover-shopping at the bookstore. If you're lucky there's a horror section: otherwise, you may be in sci-fi, fantasy, romance, or that wondrous catchall, "novels." You want to find vampire books, of course. Other than the word "vampire" in the title, what will tip you off? You look at the cover paintings.
