Ancients Embrace (continued)

Coming to a decision I gently lift her with my mind1

Telekinesis one the many mysteries of my kind2

I gently lay her on top of my mothers marble tomb3

A place sacred to me, where I was released from her womb4

Also a place of sadness, for with my birth, came death5

She gave me the gift of life with her soul and her last breath.6

Knowing I must act now, if I want to save her from gods grasp7

Breathing in deep I reach up and quickly undo my cloaks clasp8

Taking off my silk shirt revealing a blood ruby buried deep9

Within the flesh of my chest, slowly it begins to weep10

Drops of deep red blood slowly filling an ancient crystal chalice11

A family heirloom imbued with pureness devoid of malice12

Some say we are evil creatures assassins of the night13

Destroyers of life soul drainers killing everything within our sight14

Some of our kind are like that ruining it for others15

Causing the death of my sisters and brothers16

I am not like that I hunt only to survive17

Never taking more than I need and leaving them alive.18

Except for her she is the first I have fully drained19

Never has my lust been so intense so strained20

Now that the chalice is full, time for the emergence21

Binding my blood and her soul as one ending innocence22

Soon the last of my blood enters her mouth then it begins23

Some say the change is the most sensual and sweetest of things24

I think they must be insane, nothing is further from the truth25

I have seen the change before have seen the agony26

The fear and sorrow, some accept though not many27

Their lives forever changed chained to darkness28

Never to feel the heat of the suns beautiful embrace.29

I stand vigil over her as she arches in agonies throes30

Her screams rip into my heart leaving sad echoes31

Sometimes I wish I was just a human mortal32

Living for short time before passing through heavens portal33

Just to see the sun rise in all its glory and power34

Just to feel alive, to see the beauty of a sunlit flower35

But never will I see what mortals take for granted36

But my path is chosen to be a part of the kindred37

Never to feel the heat of day, only coolness of night38

within the sweet embrace of darkness and moonlight.39

Looking down at her sleeping peacefully40

Brushing the hair away from her face carefully41

I know the ritual is almost complete42

Only needing the final words before she is free43

I turn and spread my arms calling upon my ancestors44

Raising my voice I ask for the blessing of our creators45

The very first of our kindred and now vampyre lords46

Slowly each appear and kiss her forehead before raising their swords47

And chanting Blood of the earth, fire of the night48

Grant our daughter life, Grant her our birthright49

As the last words spoken a deep gong resonates50

Thunder and lightening rages as heaven closes its gates51

Then the skies open up releasing tears of sorrow52

Forever more she now is forbidden entry to gods plateau.53

With a deep intake of breath she awakens and smiles54

It is done she is one of us now a kindred and exile55

I nod to each lord and brother silently as they fade56

Soon it is only we who are left within the ritual glade57

I look into her deep sapphire blue eyes once green58

And deep love and reverence for such a creature as me59

Though I was reluctant at first to bring her into my circle60

I am glad I did in the end for it seems the feeling is mutual.61

To be continued.... eventually62

Author notes

Well I wrote some more to this poem/story, and created an ending of sorts for now, but there is going to be more to this poem, as I cant leave at this. lol I have spent too much time writing it...and I really feel the poem/story needs more to it.
So I am going to carry writing it till, I feel it is  completed.

Tell me the good the bad and how it made you feel, sorry for the overall length.

P.S You will see a paragraph where there is no ryhme sorry about that, will edit it later on...guess I got carried away, only noticed it after posting.

What did you think? Please comment!

    Wow, I honestly don't have anything bad to say about this. I didn't notice that there was no rhyming in one paragraph either, as Lady Treason said. I don't think it needs rhyme to be good, though it does add to it. I love how you created an ancient immortal species and shared with the reader part of their culture and customs in the ritual. You also give some details of their appearance. I could feel the emotions of the characters sometimes. I can't wait until you finish this, and I actually hope you don't finish it in the next part, I want it to keep going! Anyway, this is amazing, I'm going to keep checking back

    You've done a superb job with this continuation, Raz! And don't apologize for the length! (Actually, I didn't find this long, at all! I know there are some that will, but they are usually people who have the attention span of a gnat!) Any really good story takes a little "telling," and you shouldn't have to sacrifice the story, for the length! As to the way this made me feel.....that's a little difficult to explain. I felt as though I was standing there, and yet out of sight; hidden. Watching covertly a safe distance away. You painted such a vivid picture, that it was kind of like watching a scene from a movie. I saw the characters, and the colors, and heard the noises. Another thing that impressed me about this piece; you've made the vampyre here an "antihero," which is cool! You've made it clear to the reader that he's not "evil." He doesn't kill for his own twisted pleasure; he does it out of necessity. (I'm not usually one that is much into "vampyres," but this character has caught my interest; maybe because he isn't completely evil!) You have a great gift for making your reader care about the characters. (That's quite a feat!) A great job you did here! We'll be looking forward to the next one!
