Richard Lamoureux Poet Quatrain

Look Into My Eyes

I have lived three hundred years
Look into my eyes if you dare
I will fill you with desire
I'm pale yet so debonaire

Seduction an ancient curse
Within your veins is my prize
We do a tortured tango
Look deeply into my eyes

The strength of a matador
Yet there's no heat from my loins
I crave the warmth of your blood
With your pulse my mind joins

Your wish is to be consumed
I dip you back take my bite
Drink until I'm satisfied
Gaze at you in the moonlight

Now you are forever mine
The years will become a blur
What I wanted is now gone
I desire what you were

Eileen Manassian January 16, 2014 at 10:18 PM It's those beautiful blue eyes....who could stand a chance against them??? Enjoyed reading this one again....Your command of words, Richard, fascinates.... Richard Lamoureux January 16, 2014 at 11:04 PM Perhaps it is because I treat them gently and leave others to command them.

Charmaine Chircop November 18, 2013 at 11:25 AM Ow that tortured tango scares me yet the other verses are seducing and really intriguing Vampazing : ) Richard Lamoureux November 20, 2013 at 6:59 PM Cool new word Charmaine! Thanks for commenting.

Donna Jones November 18, 2013 at 8:11 AM Good morning Richard...wow..really got caught up in this one...thought it was going to be a creepy vampire one then thought huh...could be any relationship....great poem.... Richard Lamoureux November 18, 2013 at 8:43 AM Ha ha, you kill me Donna. Great comment!

Monterey Sirak November 17, 2013 at 1:43 PM Definitely a WINNER in this contest! You speak eloquently of a need, a desire that can only be temporarily sated, never quenched. Richard Lamoureux November 18, 2013 at 8:45 AM I guess all humans have a bit of vampire in their blood.

Mustapha Mohammed November 17, 2013 at 4:24 AM You have captured the meaning of the poem well Richard . Simple but yet there's beauty in each line which makes it a quality piece. Richard Lamoureux November 17, 2013 at 9:38 AM Another thoughtful comment. Thanks.

Sandra Adams November 16, 2013 at 10:49 PM wow..,,this is a well penned vampire poem...that last stanza speaks volumes...once she becomes his she can no longer be what he desires or needs. yet he is bound with her an eternity...great write for the contest...i wish you luck :) Sandra Adams November 17, 2013 at 8:20 PM i have seen a few men and women suffer from that curse! :) Richard Lamoureux November 17, 2013 at 9:40 AM I'm pleased you picked up on that. That seems to be the curse of some men. Those of us who are happy in our relationships are not afflicted with that curse.

Delysia Hendricks November 16, 2013 at 7:44 PM Awww, Richard, you have me shiverin' in me booties. Please remind me to never get on the wrong side of you. Good luck in the contest, Vampire Man. Licia ;-) Richard Lamoureux November 17, 2013 at 9:41 AM Ha ha, thanks for the luck!
