I am forever searching for what I do not have and can not know.
I run lonely out into the cold dark night in search of that most elusive of treasures.

Seek me not, find me never it whispers.
And my soul can not comprehend.

I am eternally damned to this meaningless and conflicting existance.

For I have no peace.

In the dark of the night, in the thrill of the hunt, in the blood of the prey, I have no peace.

And it shines like a dagger before me.
Bright, bold, tempting.

Super-speed highways with automated vehicles joining every part of the globe. Weather controllers that keep Earth's climate pleasant year-round, aside from the occasional storm programmed by humor-loving controllers.

September 19, 2007 (Yahoo! News / Bucharest, Romania) -- Lawmakers began debating Wednesday whether the Transylvanian fortress commonly known as Dracula's Castle was legally returned to an heir of Romania's royal family and whether he is allowed to sell it.

Forbidden love
Ever hungering
Constantly yearning
Like an empty spot
In my soul
Your beautiful face
Haunting my sleep
Making me wish
That I could keep
You safe from harm
In my faithful arms
