The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Burning within

Screaming, on fire

Pouring out from the centre

Enveloping, drowning



This being, this entity

This lust for blood

Uncontrollable, inconceivable

Painful



Overpow’ring the immortal

Consuming the willing

Killing the weak

And raging through all who are damned



Damned to eternity

Damned to live

Damned to bloodlust, and

Damned to forever destroy

First day of sleep

First night arisen

Senses heightened

Yet still imprisoned



Hunger clawing

Scented blood calling

Quickly, silently

Viciously, carelessly



Almost caught, the

Spike barely missed

Hidden in the shadow

Watching the hunter



Minutes pass, then

Hours too

Finally you

Are able to move



Steal a casket

Whisk it away

Quickly run, to

Your secret cave



Your hunger sated

Your body tired

Block the entrance, and

Crawl into your coffin



Lay your head

Upon the pillow

Sleep consumes you

In the shadow of a willow

Hate and pain

Fear, regret

Have I not shed

Enough tears yet?



How much longer

Must I suffer

At the cruel hands

Of Fate?



I cannot take this

For much longer

I think I've gone insane:

I'm screaming,

Tearing at my hair.



I think I'll go

Crawl into a hole

Curl up tight

And die.

Without my mask

Where can I hide?

I need my plastic smile

So I can survive

In this world

Of pain and fear

Of pressure and regret

How can I make it

Through this life

Without my mask

To hide the

Scared little girl

I sometimes am

Inside?

Death.

Opposite of life.

Death is what life becomes.

Is it the end?

Perhaps.

A new adventure?

Possible.

Death is the only certain ting.

Even life is not certain.

Death is real.

Death is the only truth.

Life.

A single word,

Four letters.

Meaningless.

Life ends,

It always will.

Never will it last forever.

What is the point?

To die?

This is our purpose?

Useless.

Pointless.

This is life.
