The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Maidens with their flaxen hair

Ghastly skin, so soft and fair

Dwelleth deep inside my mind

Prisoned in Satan's lair



Sang they, a tuneless melody

In minor tones, all out of key

The warbling tone of Serpents song

That caused me to flee



Into the Labyrinth, I was lured

Enchanting Beast, so soft, demure

Walls of green that shut me in

My panic cannot be cured



Mistresses of Noble birth

In my fears they took their mirth

Scornful eyes devoured my soul

A broken man, I fell to Earth

Who are these

Within citadels of skin

The Heaven Chorus

The throatless, voiceless

Carved of stone



Who are these

Of windowglass substance

Ashen features

Wingless creatures

Marble miscreants



Who are these

Of gilded flesh

Hoof and horn

In crypt boudoirs

Sultry Sandstone seductresses



Who are these

Of deepest dreams

Bring me to my knees

Like falling leaves



Who are these?

Copious collages of collective cries

Stitched by the needle of time

Intrisically sutured with threads of hope

A tapestry of the lucid heart



Catching the eyes of innocent bystanders

Elusive emotions that grapple with dreams

Fascination of collective apparel

Like an oil painting the mind creates



Withered leaves from dream trees

Scatter to show a past

Like rustic snowfall, crumbles beneath the touch

Of the calloused hands of liars



Dust disperses to nothingness

On a breath of breeze, so fresh and clean

To leave the corpse of memory

To rot in a crypt of spectral dreams

The Shadow

Wherein all my visions prevail

Etched upon my bestilled heart

With a chisel of bone

Details

With the clarity of freshly spilled blood

Claret sensations, to which my heart screameth

Longing

The desire that burns through dusty veins

Incinerating Love and Compassion

Leaving only ashes of remorse

To blow away on crocodile kisses

To you



Thou art a rotting shadow

A mere bug infested mortal shell

From the veils of thickest fog

Watching

My Overseer

My Witness

Vindicator of my vengeance

With cold embrace that feels so warm

Taking a broken one to your bosom

Wrapping in a shroud of eternal damnation

And purgatory

Yet saving, from a life of pain



Thou art a sanctaury

Safety

A grotesque beauty that provideth

Peace

Thou art Me

Velvet dreams caressed by cold steel

Hearts that beat but never feel

The eyes that watch but never see

Sins of the father and heir



Hopes we lost, but still maintain

Young men playing old mens games

Isn't it time that we refrained

From stepping into Satan's Lair



Blinded eyes that see the truth

Pretty words from mouths, uncouth

The church Shaman delivers you

Unto your earthy bed



A life is done, but just begun

Delivered to a Martyred Son

A written God, Scribed by one

Into a book, unread

Once upon a twilight night

On velvet wings, I took flight

Floating through nefarious dreams

Fuelled on by a valkyries screams

For the souls of the lamented

Ripped apart by the ill contented

Like shadows on the ochre ground

I succumbed to the deafening sounds

And as the Satan Beast conjectured

Through looking glass, black hearts reflected

Mistress of the Lamb Of God

Slumbers in the Land Of Nod

While spirits of Unholy Lords

Battle with serrated swords

I wandered on, in mindless haze

Through the graves of fallen days

Chased by Demons and miscreants

Creations of Delusion and sycophants

Until I fell on bloody knees

In the shadow of the Judas tree

Where once began my life, my birth

Entombed once more in Mother Earth

Until all that's left is naked bones

Ashes to Ashes, and so it goes

Around
