The Vampire's Kiss

The soft touch of his lips against mine

a warmth fills me

it is comforting, drowning out the pain

and the rest of the world

in his arms i am safe, sheltered

nothing can harm me now

i am protected from life's evils

the whole universe shines for us

the night is ours

as are the stars shining, glowing

a veil of light, between us and the world

we rise, floating through the stars

surrounded by the heavens and a ring of fire

yet here in the arms of the one i love

my heart bleeds.
