Myth
blood drips as venom from my lips,
a vampire if you will,
every other beat it skips,
my heart, in chest is still.
I prey upon the hidden night,
I take from it it's purity,
into your neck my teeth will bite,
and mind shifts to obscurity.
an ecstasy of flowing love,
this color makes me high,
my wings of deviled dead black dove,
lifts sin to the sky.
I'd make you mine a companion so to speak,
I’d make you one of me.
but it's youth I fear I do but seek,
to fuel my killing spree.
and since I am a myth; nothing,
I am of minds betrayal.
to deny me makes your brain hurt, sting.
and senses convict portrayal.
You see me hurt you see me kill,
You see what I can do.
Deep inside and twisting down,
I know you feel me too.
And when I wake a man at dawn,
I crumble to your star,
In minds of children I will spawn,
Remain a ghastly scar.
