Upon a starless night
Amongst the cool summer rain
The lightning flashed
Yet soothing and tame
A figure sits ever so quietly
Head bowed and pained
Watching the blood wash off
And the grass red with its stain
My pained life slowly bleeds out
From the deep cuts in my wrist
I watch the lightning flash
Think "would I be missed"
The sound of thunder above
Like heavens trumpets I hear
I gently close my crying eyes
As the end draws so ever near
My whole body shivers from cold
Which doesn't come from the rain
For what feelings lay inside
Slowly Slips away with the pain
I see the visions of ghosts
Of family members that past
A small smile forms from my lips
We will be together at last
Flash of the Lightning
Send my mind drifting away
To the years that have past
And friends that didn't stay
The cool wind calls to me
Like angels singing a song
I lay amongst the blood and rain
For in this life I do not belong
I close my watery eyes
As the blackness covers me
A lifeless figure you make out
Only when the Lightning speaks

You have a gift, thank you for sharing your work
Thank you
In the light of the moon
On this clear clear night
My mind seems to change
And my soul takes flight
The blanket of earth
Which I do call home
Fails to comfort me
As my body seems to roam
A hunger deep inside of me
Takes over my emotional state
Looking for inner peace
To quench a dark flame
Peace will come
When the hunger is done
But who on this night
When all sense seems to bond
Passion or emotion
Which feeling is right
For when the light comes
Will tell my story of the night
Death does come
On the wings of night
To cause mortals fear
With a single bite
To feed and feel
The passion that’s drained
A lifeless soul
Which another I have claimed
