Vampire Lover

The moonlight filtered through
Beautiful gossamer wings
And after a tantalizing path they came 
To rest on my icy skin
He took my hand in his
His eyes so deep and black
I closed my eyes in ecstasy
The moonlight melted into the dark
His fingertips caressed my neck
His hand tightened on my waist
The ice travelled down the spine
When I spied his snow white teeth
His mouth met the nerve on my throat
As blood froze in my veins
My life now seem to stop
As I felt his chilly breath on my toes
He bowed before my limp form
Melting like a snowflake overworn

They made a movie titled "The Vampire Lovers" some years ago right after the movie rating system came into existence. I have never seen it. Congratulations on winning in Chris's contest with this entry.
