Beautiful

  He sat silently apart from the sociality
of the others.
Head bowed, slightly
in a futile attempt to hide
within the shadows of
the ambiguous candlelight.
Uttering not a sound,
yet, his eyes speaking with implicit invitation.
Drawn to his unhampered mystery
as never before.
My mind turned wildly with ravenous thought.
His steal gray eyes, enlaced with enchantment,
seemed to enslave as they whispered my name.
So perfect in his masculinity, yet,
so frail his demure.
I escaped wearily into his beauty.
The beauty of a creature feared
by those that judge with vicious harshness.
Unforgiving in his ways
and scorned for his existence.
He shivered slightly at my stare
as I stepped slowly into his expanse.
The frigidity of his skin
illuminating the air
and caressing my shadow gently.
Taken back
by this exquisite presence
as my heart beat uncontrollably
within my own corpus.
A intonation beyond sweet compare
escaped effortlessly from his divine form...
"I hear your willingness to feed my
starving desires.
I hear the precious blood
slipping ever so gently
through your longing veins.
Are you willing, willing
to love a creature such as I,
to join me in my solitude
for eternity?"
Without  hesitation
nor slightest apprehension
I became one
with this beautifully
misunderstood creature
and drown with docile adoration
within his divested configuration
to discover passionate gallantry
within his pallid phlebotomy.
Beautiful.

dwells in every soul..."

"I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less,
I am tears of pain, tears of Death.

I confess I didn't fully understand this one, but I enjoyed it.

I thank you all and am honoured that you enjoyed, though, I must admitt, I never thought this would get such wonderful responses...
and yes, there is a bit of vampire in us all...

Until...ali
