The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I drove my son to practice tonight. I glanced up into the sky and I was struck. Struck with awe at the beauty of tonight.



Just a sliver of a moon, yet so bright and white! High in the dark sky that glowed with a darkening sapphire blue. Just a little lower and to the right there were twin stars that shown with impossible light.



Like puncture wounds from a fanged bite. When I see things like this the breath catches in my chest and my pulse skips just a bit. There's a stirring somewhere deep inside. A recognition, a longing, sometimes even a mourning.



For this feeling, and this feeling alone, though I'm jaded and cynical and not prone to belief, a part of me will never give up the hope of something magical, beyond the average ken.

though, when I looked up, it didn't quite look like a smiley face like they said it would.
