I am dead and lifeless, Cold and of the departed; Two hundred years of wandering the world, Forlorn and forsaken. I lay in a crypt waiting for awakening, And I feel her passing; She walks close to my resting place this day, And I feel my hands move and my heart beat. I must have her sweet blood, Oh, I can imagine it on my lips; I stir within my coffin and open my eyes, I breathe her dulcet scent. My endless pain, existence a nightmare, This eternal life lonely; Full of agony, darkness and deep anguish, Oh, I moan and push back the coffin lid. Could this girl be the one, My soul mate for eternity; Standing there in the twilight I watch, She carries red roses. Stopping at a grave of many names, And then I am there; Startled she screams and turns to run, But she is no match for a vampire man. Her beauty is surreal to me, I embrace her in my arms; And as I pierce her neck I hear her sigh, Oh sweet, the sweetness. Her blood is like the richest of wines, I carry her to my grave; And place her gently in my own coffin, This twisted nightmare I will not endure. . . alone _____________________________ May 17, 2015 Poetry/Verse/Alone Copyright Protected, ID 05-674-914-17 All Rights Reserved, 2015, Constance La France Submitted to the Standard contest, 101 In A Row #2 sponsor, PD, Judged 2015 Sixth Place

I keep hearing that same paragraph in my head. Perhaps, it is deja vu -- or, simply, a vampire's glamour....
