The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I yearn to be alone

yet cannot find a place...

My demons follow me

wherever I may go...



So I turn my head

and move to follow them...

Confused by my actions

they begin to lead...



They lead me to a place

that causes the soul's unrest...

They lead me to a home

of a mother and her forgotten child...



We travel the world

and the world below...

We journey through hell

with the lost and the hopeless...



Finally we stop

in the darkest corner of hell...

They turn to me with evil grins

and very soon there was no more......

Very well written. Nice rhythm, excellent language, and killer last line. You've got chops. Keep it up, by all means.

She stands unguarded...

~In the sight of all....

She crys for hope...

~But no one cares....

She screams for help...

~But no one listens....

She pulls out her knife...

~Feeling overwhelmed....

Her pain feels too great...

~She feels there's but one relief........



The dark red stream runs down her arm...

~Creating a puddle at her feet....

The people pass her by...

~As she falls to her knees....

The puddle grows rapidly...

~And her eyes glaze over....

She smiles to the sky...

~Feeling as though her work is complete....

The people gather 'round the girl...

~Seeing a tragedy they could have prevented........
