Dark eyes and honey skin
Hypnotic aura, one of a kind
I wanted to possess and devour
but your fangs, superior to mine
~
For only you I fashioned a Taj Mahal
and refused to accept it in vain
Then, you slayed me with your bite
and my feelings stayed the same
~
The darkest hour
is every morning as I wake
Hallmarks of immortal desire
Scars on my neck which you’re to blame
~
I want to run from the memories
I want to never feel the hope
I don’t want to walk amongst the living dead
or drink the blood of kindred souls
~
I try to run away in a straight line
but always return on bended knee
Am I a slave to the darkness
or a jester to a queen?
~
It feels I’m always seeking red
Edgily awaiting one more drink
It’s convoluted to distinguish
when your tricks appear as treats

Hey, no problem Lauren. I just now noticed I didn’t do comment replies here. I’m so bad sometimes. It must have been one of the rough months 🙂
Thank you so much for the compliment
