Vampire [By Lillith D] - An Alt-Experience Presentation

Vampire

By Lillith D.

Charm, appeal, charisma…it all seems so benign.
But beneath this facade of benevolence

lies a creature one can’t define.

Vision keen, senses sharp…it searches night and day.
The scent of loneliness like a sweet perfume,

drives the beast toward it’s prey.

The victim found, it awaits a chance to begin another game.
Faces change with each new quest…

but it will play out just the same.

With soothing words, like a sweet caress…defenses have been dropped.
The weakness found it zeros in,

no way it can be stopped.

Hunger builds, so with cunning skill it finds a tender vein.
It’s victim so enthralled,

beguiled it doesn’t feel the pain.

So willing to surrender, the victim bares it’s need.
With a sigh of satisfaction,

the beast begins to feed.

The taste of need and loneliness… like honey to the beast.
It takes it’s time and revels

in this misbegotten feast.

But once the hungers sated… it’s interest starts to wane.
It cares not for the victim…

or for the victim’s pain.

It walks away…it’s victim left even emptier than before.
With it’s eyes now trained on another heart,

it starts the game once more.
