The Bane of Heaven
Darkness, consumes,
Leaving Men on the plain,
Intrepid, yet isolated,
More than possibly, doomed
So many have fallen,
So who will rise,
And take forth this battle,
Back to the skies?
Men, unto each other,
Truly, they do beseech,
"Is there not one among us,
Who will stand, stand tall, and lead?"
Men on the plain,
Are writhing in pain,
From wounds which will not heal
So many souls have fled,
So many are lost, dead,
How few remain, on the field?
But amidst all the blame,
All the shared shame,
Of what can only be a shattering defeat,
A Man comes forth in chains,
Comes onto the plain,
And in the dust at their feet, kneels

Hey...you.
Yeah, you. Don't give me that look. I'm just talking to you, amn't I? You look sad, and I thought telling you I'm sad too would help. Or that everyone around you is crying secretly.
I know that your life is hard, but you're not the only one with some heartbreak. Everybody has some thing that they keep locked inside, something that breaks them down.
Don't believe me?
Fine. Let me tell you some stories.
See that girl over there? The pretty one with the blonde hair and blue eyes, small nose, tan skin? Carrying her math book, talking to a small posse of laughing girls? They're heading for the benches, and they're smiling like they
One body lies in here tonight
Glowing in the candle light
The fire burns and watches me
In the chapel, gloomily
Forbidden I know this place once was
Broken by the chains of love
Love not that of mind or heart
But nothing more than my gruesome art
I can hear the virgin bleed
I\'m starving and I must proceed
She shivers and for help she cries
She looks to me with teary eyes
I feel so guilty, and yet I don't
I want to stop and yet I won't
I tell her that I'll make her free
From her mortal misery
I hold her body close to mine
And tell her everything is fine
But yet she struggles harder now
Praying, hoping and pleading out loud
Very stealthy but not graceful
All of them drink blood of animals and humans
Mysterious beings of the night
Pretend to be human, but attack at the right time
Intelligent and skillful
Rare to find in the day
Every one of them are dagerous
I knew all along
what you loved and you hated
and how you allowed me to act a fool
when I went out of my way
to keep you happy
and you were all I loved
and I was all you hated
The lies you told could be believed
and you make it look so easy
ripping hearts out and
adding them to a wall of pain
giving out rings of falcites
and twisting them around your finger
You sucked all that I had out
and my enegry focused and strengthened your desires
and you only laugh now, at my weakness
and hold my heart in your hands - ever controling
and my life on display - your words set in stone for all to read
You broke me down - and moved on wh
Something bad happened,
Something causes you to cry,
Something bad happened,
And you don't know why.
You always thought they weren't real,
You thought you'd be secure,
They had to be fiction,
But now, you're not too sure.
Your whole family,
On their necks were bites,
Only you survived,
Though horrified by the sights.
You ran away,
In fear and sorrow,
You didn't think
You'd ever see tomorrow.
Into the forest you ran,
Barefoot and sad,
Thinking back on it now
Almost makes you go mad.
Your mind races,
Your beating heart as well,
You weren't watching your footing,
And so you fell.
Face first into the ground,
You just laid
I am dead, you are alive and well.
You have a soul, I am going to hell.
I constantly travel, you live at home.
You have family and friends, I am alone.
We love each other, I now see is true.
But I refuse to condemn you too.

Vampire
You want to keep me safe, and in the dark.
But you are, my Noahs Ark.
You save me, when I drown in pain.
But somehow, you are ashamed.
I understand, and take you as you are.
Believe when I tell you, it would leave but a scar.
I have chosen to be with you.
Now you will help, make me a monster too.

Mortal
When the sky is dark and my wings beat hard
When there is no light and there's no one to guard
When spirits wander, when the horizon is a-glow
When all life fades, and your pulse is low
When my teeth shimmer in the dusk
When all heavenly smells turn to musk
When zombies and ghouls tread on the ground
When the scenery keeps spinning around
When your love ends at the sight of my lunch
When you scream when you hear the bones go crunch
When you see my victim, eyes open, motionless
When you realise you are like a warlock potion less
When my vampire sights are set on your town
When the forsaken world is falling down
When my minions ro
Is it pity?
Why are you so afraid of me
Dont deny it, For I can see
It in the way you look at me
Is my figure oh so beastly
That you tremble at mere sight of me
And yet you stay, and give company
To this thing you fear so horribly
Is it pity that you feel towards me
Or perhaps it is you who is so lonely.
The Owner of the Key
I was stuck in the bitter cold
I met a woman, whos eyes looked old
Yet her skin was young, but very pale
She helped to some of her warm ale
She took me in, out of harms way
To her castle which hides from the day
There she laid me on her bed
She undressed herself and I turned red
She s
