Vampyre XL

Endless dark, no one's in sight
You gaze out your window into the night
And your heart it does grieve
For you no longer believe
That one day he will come to take you away
So in this dark room you're destined to stay
And the years lay heavy on a heart so broken
As you wait for the words that will never be spoken
Tear stained pages that are too hard to read
Will no longer be turned by fingers that now bleed
Childish dreams lay scattered on the floor
Like so many toys, to be played with no more
All the faeries are dead, you can no longer fly
No happy thoughts left to lift you up high
But I've heard your cry, watched every tear fall
Now I've come through your window to answer your call
Though I have no shadow and my name is not Pan
I will take you away and I'll do what I can
So come fly with me deep into the night
No stars to guide us, please don't fear the height
To a place where the Lost Boys really are lost
For to give up your soul is such a small cost
To live in a land where you'll never say"never"
To me as I hold you and love you forever.

You don't know me ...
This evoked such a painful desperate longing in me that it made me loose my composure and cry.
I will have to be more careful ... I have to stop ...

To me, your poem seems like the beginnings to a real adventure with "a vampire's sort of love" perhaps being a sort of elixir gained for a life transformation. Enjoyed.

Those words will haunt me.
