The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

You dipped your toes into the darkness
As though to test if it was cold
And I knew right when you shivered
You were more scared than you had told

I wrote my words into a life ring
Something to keep your world afloat
But against the strength of your nightmares
They were a soggy paper boat

I dont know what the blackness told you
What wondrous things its planned to give
But I watched as the light died in your eyes
Along with your will to live

I screamed your name to pierce the silence
But you were too long gone to hear
Caught somewhere between being noticed
And wanting to disappear

You once said you were never scared of the darkness
And that you'd never learn to swim
But with it's promises pumped through your veins
You held your breath & jumped right in
