What bittersweet agony flows in with the night.
As the setting sun casts its last fiery rays upon the land.
What darkness will surround me as I stand upon the stones…. Listening.
The waves of the ocean lapping at my feet.
I watch the night float in upon the wings of the setting sun.
The moonrises and envelopes the nights in her eternal embrace.
Clouds converge and swirl in the heavens.
The call of the night issues forth upon the softest breeze, stirring and tugging within me.
With a gentle hand resting upon the time polished wood of the walking staff, fingers caressing and curling around it firmly, possessively.
The only remands of a life long ago lost, taken in but a moment of the bittersweet agony of the night.
This night I wait for you, you who will sleep and dream of me.
Dream my precious one, of the gifts I will bestow upon you.
Remember the taste of my lips, the softness of my flesh.
It is time the sun has set.
Emerging from my dark dwelling I come for you.
Whispering softly, as if in a dream, of the pleasures of the bittersweet agony we call life eternal.
Twisting in the wind, eyes frozen in terror, screams silenced for all time.
Lost, frozen in this moment, life slipping, and memories passing.
A smile spreads slowly over my lips as your warmth flows into me.
I hold your slowly dying body against me.
The wind is howling and whipping around us, I welcome you.
Hazel fires closing as I drink deeply of your life giving essence.
You will sustain me.
Pulling away I feel the last of your cherished warmth slip through my mind.
Your thoughts free from you as I press my flesh to your waiting hungry lips.
The stain spreads over your lips, crimson flowing into you.
A new life I give to you, one forever bound to me.
This gift I offer to you, you whose life I have taken for reasons you will never know.
I have chosen you, I will teach you and you will welcome it.
You who is now my childr.
Eternally…
