Bloodthirst

Bloodthirst
 Put the pen to paper.
 Soon your life will vapor.
 It’s just an old story.
 The floor creaks underneath me.
 Survive another nightmare in the night.
 No place to run or hide.
 Everything seems to be so real.
 Death at your door, let's make a deal.
 All dust shall return.
 You can’t escape but only burn.
 Blood rains from the sky.
 Bewildering, you must survive.
 It’s just a creepy house on the left.
 Lay face down bleeding to death.
 Become worm food in the cold dirt.
 Your rosary can’t save you, I’m sure.
 The sky is burning orange ash in a haze.
 Descent far below, all memories will fade.
 Don’t ask for help, this was the choice you made.
 You never listened to me anyway.
 Shed blood through pain.
 Through grief there is no shame.
 I can’t save you from your own misery.
 This is Dracula ready to feed.
