Drop goes the blood
Morbidly it goes down my hand,
The murder I committed
tainted in my shirt,
I let the knife sink into his spine,
Oh how his blood called me
It spoke to me,
I was like a firefly going
into the blazing fire
Her life was wasted
Yet I feel no regret
Because in trade for her life
I satisfied my hunger
...My taste of blood
Heart beats faster, faster
A second later, a shadow
Flits 'round the corner, after
A blink, though eyes follow
'Tis gone, is it a dream?
Slow steps, unsure of a dark
Unseen, somewhere, it lurks
Trying, it feels a vivid mark
Of fear, the shadow works
To consume another soul
Another blink, it appears
Veiled black, 'twas sinister
Monstrous, horns of spears
On a grotesque skull, faster
Legs are running away
Hearing footsteps behind,
Kept at a sprint, swiftly fled
Away, no, a wall stood unkind
Between salvation and end
Here, where it will finish
Slowly it approaches, seeking out
The fear inside, lungs repulsed
By the stench of corpses left to rot
Gleaming silver, it's claw caused
Blood to flow, fresh crimson
Gasping for breath, vision exhausted
A rattle pierces the silence
The spirits rage on, finally lasted
Joining their ranks of indifference
Eternal rest whence I come
