Sweet Ecstasy

Her skin was white as porcelain, her eyes were emerald green

She was the most alluring creature that I had ever seen.

Elegant and beautiful, she exuded style and grace

Fragile as a butterfly, and as delicate as lace.

She came to me at night, as I lay on my bed

She promised I was hers forever, I loved every word she said.

Immortality was ours, she whispered in my ear

If I gave myself to her, eternity was near.

How could I resist her, my heart she set aflame,

Oh how sweet the ecstasy,

                     As she bit into my vein.

Really nicely done. This flowed smoothly and the rhymes were spot on. I always enjoy an ending that catches me off guard.
