Why

Why do we love the undead?
Why are they going through our heads?
We respect them, we have strong desires
especially for vampires

Why do we love the color red?
Is it everything that deals with the dead?
like the red rose or blood.
something we wish but isn't good.

Why seduction and lust?
or why do we want the bite?
maybe cause that life seems alright,
but would you want to live forever alone?
without love or a home?

The undead may seem fun
but everything isn't quite done..
