I Had A Strange DesireI had a strange desireMy love, as you bore down on me... You kiss on my neck was fierce... As you pressed your teeth so hard Against my red-flushed skin, I desired your teeth To push further And draw out the blood That pulses within Driven by a heart That beats only for you... By a heart that beats Next to yours now. But for your cold touch To still my heart That beats within, My desire would not seem so strange... You are beautiful and enticing, But your love is fleeting, Like the shadow of the wind In the dim moonlight, And neither my weak eyes, Nor my weak heart, Could see in the dim moonlight, That your warm, red lips, Were only warm and red, With my warm, red blood on them. I once had a strange desire, But that has waned Like the once full moon That now is dark and silent, Like my heart that once Beat only for you... It beats no more, And the blood that once pulsed within Was soaked up by the moon That hangs like a bloody rag, Silent, dark and ashamed Of the strange desire.

Skyward, My Vampire LoveLooking skyward at icy feather dragons,That float like my dreams above, I rest, head on pillow, in bed, And dream of you, my vampire love. I walk among daisies by day, Under the warmth of a golden sunlight, But you do not live that way, You dark creature of the night. You desired a rose as red as blood, And the garden not being well lit - I cut my thumb picking a rose bud, And let you lick the blood off of it. Your thirst remained unabated, As was my fierce love for you, So in that garden you again waited, For I would return, you knew. I tasted the salt on your lips, As I kissed the one my heart adores, And saw fangs as each word of love slipped, From those blood red rose lips of yours. I offered my bare throat to you, And felt your breath on my cheek, As your passions and your fangs grew, And I was bitten and felt my blood leak. We lay in the garden as I tasted your blood, "You shall live with me forever" you said, Holding my head above the garden's mud, As I grew colder and was finally dead. Everyone left with the departure of light, I being buried among the daisies by day, But I belonged to the night, Mere granite could not make me stay. You glanced downward with fierce eyes of red, As you flew by the moon high above, And I became a bat as I rose from the dead, And flew skyward with you, my vampire love.
