Night-Lust

By Buzby

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

When you hear me call your name, you’re compelled to see it through Even though you’re terrified, it’s what you have to do. When you see me standing, so cold and pale and white You want to turn and run from me, your creature of the night. I catch you with my eyes, so you cannot run away And when I start to beckon, you know you must obey. You start to walk with trembling legs into my outstretched arms And though you try,it seems that you just can’t resist my charms. You know that there’ll be no escape,once I’ve drawn blood then it’s too late. Your body stands, still mesmerised by the look that’s in my eyes But even as I start to bite,your brain defies, it still says fight! My undead fingers grip your flesh, do you feel cold as I caress? I stroke your face, I feel your hair, my touch means death but do you care? Stroking your neck, I tilt back your head, you tremble before me, shaking with dread. Licking my lips, hunger burning inside, there’s nowhere to run to - there’s no place to hide! Snarling and hissing I savagely bite deep into your neck as you struggle and fight My razor sharp fangs penetrate your vein, as the blood starts to flow,you cry out in pain! Drinking warm blood as I’m holding you tight, you’re gasping for breath, you’re shaking with fright! My drinking slows down as you sink to the floor, Still I follow you down, always hungry for more. My mouth at your throat as my hand grips your hair You are frozen in time by my vampire stare. Crossing the line between pleasure and pain As I stand to go, you cry out my name. You beg me to stay, you grovel and plead I laugh in your face, I don’t care what you need. I leave you alone, still panting and crying And feeling so weak, you think you are dying. Tomorrow night I’ll be back, when I must feed again You are my life, and I am your pain. You will never break free of my vampire hold You must give what I want, you must do as you’re told. Alone in your bed, you can see morning light I’ll be back for more blood, as soon as it’s night I know when you sleep you’ll be dreaming of me You can never escape me, you’ll never be free. Your life has become mine to control I’ve taken you over body and soul. All that I ask for is all you must give I am your life force, your reason to live. There can be no one else to make you feel this way I feast from you at night and dream of you all day. Written December 22nd, 2001 © on Dec 21 2001 07:43 PM PST   0 • 16
