Prelude To a Vampire's Kiss

Death upon these lips Colder than the wintry moonless night But, warmer than the she devil’s soulless kiss And life’s fog that once lingered about Now begins its lift Visions spiral lucid Suckle tastes begin to taint my breath And a faceless angel beguiles With arms outstretched Veiling horns and tails within the mist I’m the sacrificial wrapping lamb to gift Of the dragon lady smoking in a shadowed dress Undeath shackles upon undue matron As chains far out reach for this very soul Adjoining the undead unto the unlove’s fold This here and now moments gone to all too short And time quickly runs out of me When a heart bleed ends From echoes of the last blood drops And final freedom befriends, new found love In matrimony of immortality
