The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Someone that cares about me a lot and someone that I care about in return sent this to me one morning. It made me cry.





How can I show you

that you are beautiful

when you always look the other way

Finding imperfections

with every living breath

feeding yourself deceit

every night as you lie in bed



How can I show you

that you are beautiful

when you see only flaws in the diamond

and not the sparkle that it holds

You judge yourself with consequence

tearing down what nature built

and turning it into darkness cold



How can I show you

that you are beautiful

when you don't look into the mirror

save with tear-streaked eyes

How can you see yourself as I do

when you're peering through a looking glass

warped by doubt and loathing

brewed within your mind



How can I show you

that you are beautiful

when your beauty is just too much

and leaves me lost for words

choking on every thought

while trying to explain something so clear

that it is written all over your face



How can I show you

that you're beautiful

when the world is not enough

and a million voices

fail to change your song

unable to silence

the doubt that beats away



No I can't show you

that you're beautiful

No matter how hard I try

But I'll whisper it to you every night

as you drift off to sleep

and hope that one morning

you'll wake up with eyes wide open

and see yourself as I do



A perfect diamond

A stunning reflection

and a ray of sun

piercing my own darkness

taking the clouds away

Darkness fills this constant nightmare

This constant nightmare known as my life

My life that seems so empty yet is so full of pain

Pain that repeatedly pierces my heart so broken

Broken from the love I did not recieve from you

You, who made me feel special

Special enough to be worhty of your affection

Affection that I have wished for

Wished for because I've never felt wanted.



But it seems



Wanting all of this was too much to ask of you

You, who now makes me long for death

Death, my true salvation

Salvation from this cold heartless world

This world that can't seem to see

To see the pain and sorrow it provides

Provides for anyone seen as 'different'

Different from the norm

The norm that views people like me as evil

Evil, demonic beings that belong in Hell

Hell, in my opinion must be better than this

This torment thats driving me crazy

Crazy enough to think of suicide.



Suicide, the means to an end

An end that I need to feel beautiful

Beautiful as this blade slices through my pale skin

My pale skin that is now being covered by

By this warm, crimson liquid

This liquid that is slowly draining me of my existance

My existance that will now be forever remembered

Remembered as a flawless masterpiece of strawberry gashes

Strawberry gashes that finally bring me my immortality

My immortality in whatever may come after life is over.



I only pray that death be better than life.

It is too late to turn back now

I'm feeling weak inside

I hope you remember what you've done to me

Because now the darkness is fading

and my life, my soul, my entire being is now truly empty.
