A Kiss Before Dying Waken “Child of Darkness” from the point of no return A soulless creature in Hell you forever burn Skin transparent pale winter white Seeks victims unsuspecting in the black of night Footprints soft and silent, never will they hear Powers from the crypt, it is you that they fear Warm flow of blood, thirst too lust Powerless to fight, relax in your touch Pounce the tiger with fangs of death Useless struggles to draw one last breath Feed upon mortals forever stay alive Thrill of the kill in this you thrive Offer the gift , or to let die Life’s red blood wine drunk till dry The master at work chills to the bone In misery’s moon never walk alone Creatures of darkness softly sighing Forever offer a last kiss before dying Marina Feb 18/2000 |

Marina, WOW! This is one of, if not your best. All my love, Jeffrey I lie awake in a world filled with dreams, but dreams can be so real when you don't know you're asleep |

OOOOOH....scared of you marina-girl... and that poets pen of yours... this is awesome girl!! I just gotta know the inspiration behind this one... been hanging out with the vamps again *smile* later marina-gator jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving How one move just puts me by myself There you go just trusting someone else Now I know I put us both through hell ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me And I'm not sayin We ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let you get away from me. ~MB20~Leave |

Marina, this one would make you shiver before going out into the dark night alone! Some serious imagery here! Very well written i think. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Excellent poem. I understand that they are releasing a game based on Vampire:The Masquerade for the PC. Perhaps I will check into it. |

Jm, my inspiration for the Vampire tales is from the series of vampire chronicles written by Anne Rice. |
