The Vampire

 

The belltower tolls in the dead of the night

The ghastly sound the only one in sight

The moon is gone the stars have died

And all else left has slunk inside

 

Within all the darkened alleyways

Bright red eyes entrap your gaze

You cannot walk you cannot run

There’s something now that must be done

 

Hungry faces leer in the gloom

Whispering the words that spell out your doom

Ghost white hands start reaching out

If you only had a voice you’d scream and shout

 

Trapped alone in your mind of fear

There’s no one that can help you now, not here

Softly, gently, they pull you in

Cradle you to them just like him

 

A flash of white, a burst of pain

All you know in the pattering rain

The darkness closes all you feel

Your blood running over you, their next meal

 

And then you know why no one else

Was out in that city by themself

For in those darkened alleyways

The end that met them all was the same

 

A city that’s dead in the dead of night

But nothing will change with first light

Cold as death you fall to the floor

A hooded figure before death’s door

 

Skeletal face from beneath the cloak

Chillingly laughs like only one would

Any chance you once had to escape now looks dire

The fate of all who crossed the path of the vampire.
