Graveyard Coffeehouse

The Vampyre Way

---

Walking into the cold
Night air
All is barren
Unforgiving
Trees reach their bare branches
Like supplicating arms
To the sky
So much like a man
Crying out in anguish
An owl voices his despair
Yet I am here
Within it all
And above it all
A Vampyre
Solitary
Hungry
Seeking
Pleasures of the flesh
Thirsty for blood
Becoming one
With the Darkness
It is my home
My castle
My hunting ground
And I protect it fiercely
With my life.

I am
Alive
Undead
Stalking
By the light
Of the full moon
Cloaked in shadows
Guided by the black
Awaiting the crimson kiss
Life
Death
Rebirth
Sustenance
The drained husk of a body
The wicked smile
On a deceased woman's
Face.

If so desired
I can breath life
Eternal living
Into the dead
Finding
A new companion
To walk the Night
So I need never
Be alone
Feeding
In tandem
Sleeping in coffins
Side by side
Within an abandoned church
Adjoining
An ancient cemetery.

Our thoughts
Are of past lives
Future conquests
Eternity
Love
Sweet love
Vampyre kisses
Slow, deep and wet
Sanguinary dreams
Shrieks
Passion
Sensuality
Long nights
Of eroticism
Orgasmic ecstasy.

Our
Pale bodies
Colliding
Electric
Kissing
Biting
Hands probing
Hearts racing
Two spirits becoming One
As sighs and moans
Screams
Waft ethereal
Like a phantasm
In the dark
Sky
Disturbing the silence
The quiet of the dead.

Two hearts
Minds
Spirits
Bodies
Naked and alone
We have forever
To ponder immortality
All the possibilities
For love
Lust
Domination.

Our only rest
Is the deep sleep
As the Sun rises
And evil slumbers
Pacified
Awaiting Night
For we must drink blood
Or die
Once more.

We lay still
In our caskets tonight
Dreaming
Of an ivory fanged bite
Delighting in the world
We rule
Alpha predators
Awaiting the moment
We arise
Ready to stalk
Our next
Victim.
