Introduction:- Ivy Rose
I Soar the night
so dark it shimmers,
and spear through time
in the cold of the winter
Morphing through wind
I play in the dust,
prey on the weak
and draw them with lust
I speak to the dead
and call forth a spell,
a force of power
man cannot quell
Stray in the light
and close to a cross,
or praying some night
I WILL find you lost
Have garlic on hand
and wreath your neck,
or hungered some night
I might bite you yet
Ivy rose is my name
and I’m thirsting for blood,
my desire in your veins
will soon mouth to floods
Beguiled to lust
I will bequeath,
that your juice will flow
as my fangs unsheathe
I stalk the streets
in a purple cape,
and walk in a darkness
no creature can escape
Drawn to mirrors
I am cursed in glass,
but I look through the ages
and no image does pass
Walking to death
I look to the light,
dreaming someday
to resurrect in life
