Vampyre by ~SanguineousRose:iconSanguineousRose:

::Vampyre::

See beyond thy misted eyes
Crimson tears in reminscence
Truths are naught but hidden lies
Mourning o'er lost innocence.

Unholy act of resurrection
Tis fatal kiss gives immortal life
Bound to drink with fervent conviction
Condemn thy soul with lasting strife

Thou flawless skin shall deceive
Hide thy guilt, thy bloodstained teeth
With open arms, thee will receive
Mortals with a living heartbeat

Forsaken forever by the Sun,
Seek comfort from the Night,
Thy rays force thee to ever run
And thou to flee in sudden flight

Lacking warmth, an icy touch
A vampyre's kiss doth damn
Thy being tis ever fueled by bloodlust
Thou shall feed off the nectar of Man

Author's Comments

A brief, poetic insight given by a Vampyre on-- what else?-- a Vampyre's life; their blessing-within-a-curse, their curse-within-a-blessing. Of course, even a immortal has better things to do than make a poem rhyme...

Why do you spell it Vampyre instead of Vampire? Is that a politically correct term or a game term?

Why "Vampyre"? It's an alternate spelling, and a very cool one at that. Picked it up somewhere, but can't remember where. Anyway, you can kinda tell it's spelt that way purposely as it's kinda capitalized... Lol. ^_^

Ah, very nice indeed. The rhyming and general layout of the poem is something we don't tend to see around here much. I quite like the imagery you've used in this, particularly the last stanza. It provides a very nice finishing touch. There are a few little places where the flow of the poem seems to stumble, but it's otherwise a very :+favlove:-able piece of work.
