Trophy of Red

Simply put.. Vampire

Lusting something deep within,

hidden by the layers of skin.

Something so close, Yet so far away,

Time and again.. Day after Day.

A Crimson color, a Feast every night.

The smell, the Taste.. Pure Iron Delight.

A Glimmering star, the Glow of a moon,

The beginning of an end, is coming too soon.

The peace may be broken and a Challenge may arise,

But to the fallen and the loser, it comes as a surprise.

The Victor takes what is now his, A Trophy of Red..

And Leaves his victim in a tomb for the dead.
