The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

~ Grigori ~



On waking, to find you absent-

having flown this proverbial coop

of twisted bedding, damp sheets

of feathers that recall you...

ruffled and smoothed

by both mouth and hands-



i would not curse you earthbound,



though greedy, i would have you at my side

and pray for small openings,

crevices and spaces that allow me entry

into some precious, sacred room

you've kept for yourself,

seeking knowledge of the moon,

aloft while i forage...

a raven,

craving those shiny, pretty things...

feathering this nest with baubles and trinkets-



i would not pray you walking, wingless-



shifting aimless between shadow and light,

staring up between tree limbs

begging for the sky-

while my legs and arms entwined,

keep you rooted to the earth

with what fruit we might produce

is my womb,

is my love of you,

is my desperate language,

tongues we speak in secrecy-



i would not repent, not forsake you-



though gods and humanity will not recognize us...



i would not have you fallen...



...for me.
