Immortal
I feel your breath upon my skin
Causing shivers from within.
You whisper in my ear
That there is nothing to fear.
Your blood red eyes
Tell me those are lies.
My life is about to disappear
Yet I still stand here.
I do not want to lead a life
That causes dischord and strife
But I cannot move a muscle
Even though I need to hustle.
I do try to leave you
But you already knew
What I would try to do
Your side to me you drew.
My cries go unheard
My pleas seem absurd
Most exquisite pain
When teeth pierce my vein.
I am rooted to the spot
And no longer try to plot
My very own escape
As a new plan takes shape.
As he drinks my blood
New thoughts begin to flood
Thoughts of life eternal
And now being nocturnal.
I feel a brand new strength
One that goes on at length.
I smell blood and fear
Yet rules I must adhere.
No longer can bear the sun.
Can lift more than a ton.
Have the power of speed
And to Enthrall if I so need.
I am no longer mortal.
I am a glorious immortal.
What here has transpire?
I am now a Vampire.
