I can smell the blood
I see it running from his mouth
The body hits the ground
Thud1
The color red
The smell the texture
Thick and powerful
Running through my head2
He’s at me now
I can’t run I don’t want to
I’m not afraid
I don’t know how3
His teeth pierce my skin
My body is hot
Im shaking intensely
My new life will begin4
I’m feeling a rage
I want to kill
Im craving blood
Today turns the page5
I fall to the ground
He’s above me
Staring, smiling
In his eyes Im bound6
Im screaming, pleading
Grabbing at my throat
I can feel the holes
I’m bleeding7
He’s laughing
Watching
Licking his lips
My life is ending8
Im cold, drained
Blood all around me
Saturating my hair
I’ve been brutally maimed 9
The twitching is begging to cease
My eyes are closing now
Take me with you
Don’t leave me here please10
Darkness sweeping in
Demons on my back
This is my new life
Murder and sin11
I want to kill
“I’ll teach you”
He said
Calmly and still12
I can feel his hands
He lifts me up
My heart is burning
I will follow all demands13
He looks at me
Looking at me with red eyes
He’s the one
He’s the key14
Forever I will follow
I am meant for him
I can feel the thirst
Fresh, warm blood I will swallow15
We are flying
I’m in his arms
Limp
It’s just like dying16
I will not look away
His face is my comfort
People, my friends
I am going to slay17
My first fatality
My Mother
Blood on my hands
Feels like normality18
That’s what she gets
No more yelling
No more demands
I’m done with her fits19
“You should have come before”
I said to him smiling
Feeling whole
“This is all I ever wanted and more”20
The second chosen casualty
My so called best friend
Back stabbing whore
I killed her brutally21
He’s watching me still
He looks so pleased
This unwanted void
He shall finally fill22
He loves me
He wants me
He chose me
I’m His23
I will follow you forever
I love you
I want you
My dark, Evil Lover24
In the blood, in your eyes
I see my new life
I’m so glad you found me
My night time sunrise25
The first person who chose me
The last person who will have me
I will love you forever
For All Our Eternity

Ooooo DARK!
Very dark, very nice, I enjoyed this a lot and now I understand what you meant by it being a bit gory! "Blood on my hands;
Feels like normality" very powerful line. Keep up your fantastic work!

This is soooo good. It describes the transformation into a vamp well.

You don't want to know what I thought but than you asked, so the truth , Well, I liked it and actually enjoyed it .
(note the W in well could have been H but tried to keep it clean) It was well written and glad it will be published in a mag. so more can appreciate the work you put into this and it was a attention getter, and well it got me. Very good job and it was good size poem but it still made me want to continue and so there is nothing wrong there and the one mistake, which I missed cause I wanted to continue reading without interruption was just minor and thanks it was well done and your deserving of the honor to share it with many , please write more , very good read.

I really like how this is written out as a story with little stanzas. It's sort of like an epic, in a twisted way because he's not being a hero in the way everyone expects him to.
I like how she expects it from the beginning and is sort of looking forward to it. It's really interesting. It sort of reminds me of the way Ellen Hopkins writes ^_^

Wow, I really like this. I enjoy dark fantasy and gothic literature in the first place, but this poem is quite beautifully cast! I love how in a way she uses this new dark gift for revenge.
Just one error (maybe): should "his teeth piece my skin" be "his teeth pierce my skin"?
Otherwise great job! I love it! -
