Come Closer Love

Where nightmares wait to touch the soul with fear,
The path of darkness leads beyond the night,
Come closer; love, for I am waiting here,
To unearth desires in blood curdling fright.
A vampire’s kiss to set your heart alight,
As immortal dreams return to our sight,
If you should dare to step inside this place,
A hidden world that leaves no earthly trace.
Oh love I am so weary from the chase,
By name I call you here to comfort me,
My poisoned eyes hunger to see your face,
And let my lips set your own spirit free,
As we join in one immortality,
Even in darkness love is the only key.
