Blood

Blood

A Poem by Lestat's daughter

Nectar of all life on earth,

Food for those who crave it.

That which gives us life can easily be taken away.

Life is so precious, why toy with it?

 

Some lives are shrowded in darkness,

Others are bathed in light.

Those souls that are hidden by shadows know how to lure others in.

You all ready may be lost to them

 

To those who's lives still remain in the light,

Remain strong against the darkness.

Once they have you there's no letting go.

You'll end up one of them.

 

Some don't mind the darkness.

Sucking the lives and souls from others.

Some people wanted it.

I do.

A very "deep" piece...the darkness and the mystery is both enchanting and powerful. Great word choice...brings home your topic quite nicely. The only thing I would suggest is a little edit in terms of punctuation--I saw a few places where periods where used and I think comma's would be better (or no punctuation at all), because the flow gets broken up a little bit. Other than that, this was a nicely written piece and an enjoyable read.

An interesting piece that works on 2 levels. It can be taken to mean literal vampires, or the spiritual-emotional kind. A nice slightly disturbing feel to it...great ending too.

Ah, to call attention to the vampire's source of immortality and happiness. I enjoyed reading this, hearing the song-like melody playing while I read the words. Quite a piece you have here.

My dearest friend in darkness, you know I have been on this site for more than a year and I have yet to meet someone whom shares my darkened desires. Personally I thought this was a brilliant piece filed with deliciously dark metaphors and imagery ... I think this could be the beginning of a great friendship - ha ha

But on a serious note, I really loved your opening stanza, it just seemed to have that necessary "pulling" power to draw unsuspecting readers deeper into your lair of no return...

Me likes!!!!
