[hometext] => I was feeling a little depressed during a study hall, while reading an Anne Rice book. So I wrote this poem. Enjoy!
[bodytext] => The rain pours upon my head As I walk down this dark place. Evanescent thoughts in my mind You’ll find no smile upon my face. The little drops do not hide my sorrow Or the evidence of my fears I’ve been told to destroy But I haven’t all these years. My world seemed to suddenly crash At the end of that hall, Down and down the hard stone steps Where he took his mighty fall. I lost my way, After he died I didn’t care for life I broke down and cried. Just when I thought I was a lost hope Almost like a little lost child. He then found me This man that was bewitching and somewhat wild He tricked my into this life With his sweet kiss. This magic world turned malevolent I cannot live in this vague bliss. He said this would be a perfect life For we would never grow old. I should of thought of what I’d miss But instead my soul I sold. I do not like to live like this The lives that I destroy But to him, he doesn’t even think of it With them he only toys. To him, they’re only specs of life Their emotions to be shaken Until he binds down upon them Their world now completely broken. He tries to guide me towards them But there in a chair I sat I sincerely despise him That blond haired prince of brats. I had to get away from him Get away from this lie I walked until I heard the sound Of a girl that was rather shy. She asked me to stay with her Her voice, like the coo of a dove And as I held her in my arms I felt a mixture of sorrow and love. She was so small and so fragile, Her head against my chest Then my hunger took her soul And I thought that I had put her to rest. As I laid her on the ground He found me just to taunt me I ran swiftly past his shadow He only wanted to haunt me As I ran, I lost my thoughts As I traveled through the night My thoughts disappeared from my head And they went off on a swift flight. His words finally made sense to me After I pretended to be blind The truth towards my own happiness The answer I alone had to find. I finally fell to my knees Upon the dark road I sat No one there to keep my company Except for low life rats. Eons later, later that night He found me sitting there He asked me to come with him And a surprise that I was completely unaware. We traveled, just him and I Until we reached our house And then I heard a sound Almost as quiet as a mouse I opened the door To see the little girl sound asleep I felt guilt go throughout me While she was merely counting sheep. ‘ I thought I killed her,’ I confessed I felt my eyes from tears ‘ Your conscience is cleared,’ he told me As he did what I most feared. He bent down upon her, Giving her his sweet kiss I felt a tear roll down my face As I thought of the life she was going to miss. But I grew quite fond of her This precious little girl When I thought my world was gray She took it for a whirl. She never stopped asking me About our world and our kind And I said to her simply Your own answers you must find However, she started to reject him Our great and wonderful sire Yet I was the one who helped him to his grave Causing him death by fire. She and I left after he was gone The flames consumed him fast I was once again crying for a loved one She said my tears wouldn’t last. As we stood, the two of us Our thoughts we sought to send To anyone who was listening And hoping that this wasn’t the end. We searched for others like us Ones that shared our fate But when we discovered their secret coven I found they were not in heaven’s gate. They told me it was a crime To bring a young one, like she, in They saw her as a monster As if she was a forbidden sin Years later after that I lost her My little one, the one with whom I use to talk But now I can only remember her As I take my midnight walks.
