Silent night you embrace me
and Invite me into
your symphony
I feel you run within my energy
and take me to calm
away from daylight
In your womb I lay my complete soul
and dance In your whirlwind
of an fantastic orgasm
And as morning arrives in distant sky
I follow you into sleep
away from all sounds of day
Forever Companion that always awakens
me from within, each night
takes me to the symphony
Forever and without changing
life and death,this is
my home, my soul.......

Stefan

Most writers can remember the moment they started to compose their first story. For some, it started with an exercise book on the train. Others penned their first words in front of a blank computer screen. Successful children’s author Ann Jungman’s first attempt at literary creativity was slightly more public -- it happened in front of a class of unruly primary school children.

When you cry out in pain
and nobody can hear you,
when your dying inside and
it appears that nobody can
see it in your eyes or that
they even give it a second
thought or don't even care
about your silent screams;

When you scream out for help
and nobody even notices your
true confusion about your
own very existance or your
own worth or your own right
to live because without any
acceptance no one has any
acceptance for themselves;

My silent screams are heard
by none thus I am neither

From without I see a Dreamer,
From within a crying babe.
From without I see the Creator,
From within I see a knave.
From without I see a monster,
From within a budding babe.
From without I am a demon,
From within I'm goddess gave.
What am I?

Dracula's powers and weaknesses: This is a series of quotations from the book Dracula by Bram Stoker (the Signet Classic version). I hope through these quotations from the book to help interested parties get some ideas of the powers of vampires, for Stoker basically introduced the myth of the vampire to the masses (in other words, he made it more widespread than it had ever been before).
