Vampire Romance In Crimson

For your opaque heart I drank crimson cocktails of my blood. The masquerade is over. Be aloof with a statue. Share your veneer of caring, the obscurity of your idea of respect, with a marble edifice. Let someone else be hypnotized by your deceit. Apply your death suture to somebody else's feelings. Your ebony intent belongs in a spider's web.

Thanks, Tim. After two dark poems this week I'm ready for a change.
