I have been hidden from your world, Watching you all hunt with obsession, Fading into the shadows all day, Waiting for my moonlit possession. I am the creature of your darkest fear, The entity you wish banished forevermore, Your lines and movies decree me evil, Upon wings of your phobia I soar. I am the dragon of blood in the black, Drinking deep from your every ovarice, Watching the light of life wither and wilt, The angels' serenade sprinkles me with bliss. I stalk the streets and alleyways eternally, Hungry eyes ravenous for maiden flesh, Corrupted, insane and cast down by you all, My need to feed cured by one so fresh. But light crawls back from the edge of the world, Dragging me down into my personal hell, I fly free on the fearsome gale of night, By day I am nothing but a withered shell. I want to be saved from this life, I want to walk in the golden days, Someone reach out and pull me back, Don't abandon me in these blackened ways. |

I don't know quite what to say about this James, though it is very good. I hope you're just taking the cue from the latest craze, The Twilight series. Ida |
