The Vampire

She was a maiden with long red hair A delicate monster to a heart filled with fear Binding as one as he lays on her lap As if he was taking an eternal nap Love was strong but the pain was deeper Did he know that she was a reaper? The sense of desire was in the room Complicated emotions felt like doom A deadly attraction none can resist The journey to death that couldn’t desist Darkness overcomes the day Shadows came and won’t go away Alienated from the world, embraced in deception Emptiness covered their hearts as they lived in corruption He searched for comfort and found peace in her She held him in her arms wishing they can last forever Blood flooded up the place Memories, none to erase The vampire with a sorrowful heart A relationship that will break apart The lovers trap is love and passion A gentle touch, a painful affection Hearts slowly dying, one by one With a suffering that will never be gone Painting: Vampire (1895) - by Edvard Munch
