Look Into My Eyes

I have lived three hundred years Look into my eyes if you dare I will fill you with desire I'm pale yet so debonaire Seduction an ancient curse Within your veins is my prize We do a tortured tango Look deeply into my eyes The strength of a matador Yet there's no heat from my loins I crave the warmth of your blood With your pulse my mind joins Your wish is to be consumed I dip you back take my bite Drink until I'm satisfied Gaze at you in the moonlight Now you are forever mine The years will become a blur What I wanted is now gone I desire what you were For Archaic Poet's Old School Vampire Contest Contest name: "Poems From The Vampire!" Written Friday the 15th, 2013 By: Richard Lamoureux I went with Old School Rhyming as well.

Perhaps it is because I treat them gently and leave others to command them.

Definitely a WINNER in this contest! You speak eloquently of a need, a desire that can only be temporarily sated, never quenched.

I guess all humans have a bit of vampire in their blood.

i have seen a few men and women suffer from that curse! :)

I'm pleased you picked up on that. That seems to be the curse of some men. Those of us who are happy in our relationships are not afflicted with that curse.
