Eternal Longings

Shadows feeding on the night
Cursing the ways of the light
Step after step
Breath after breath
I watch you from behind every single stare
Every single movement from your face of fair
My lineage pumping through my veins
Beating vital juices of liquid ebony
Behind eyes of sapphire light
Dwells the need for life
Within me I live for you
I follow you to your safe haven
Fixed on your essence
My control starts to diminish
Suppressing the hunger and the need
Neglecting that my life is but to feed
To feed upon you is to endure certain treasures
Pleasures of which I cannot encounter
Your life means more to me than my death
Hemmed from nothingness of the perfect stitch
Bleeding the delicacy of your voice
I look away from the attraction
Trying to indulge in my affections
Resisting your vile of life that is your body
I snatch myself away for another night
I find a dark place to sleep until the next
I am cursed to see your face
Wrapped up in the silkiness of lace
Never will I touch
Never will I love
Just to watch
Just to crave
Like an animal in pain
I wince for your embrace
But just once I would like a taste
A taste of your sweet mortality
To submerge in the flowing essence of your liquor
The fates are not on the side of me
You will never see
See the eyes that cherish your very being
My tears of melancholy are but all I will ever taste
I live amongst the unknowing crowds
Watching
Weeping
Longing
Sleeping
Death weaving widows inside my frozen heart-shaped dreams
The blood of my passion seeps down in streams
My crimson yearnings inhabit inside
Forever and always for you my mortal love that is where they will always reside
