Vampiress

A Poem by Tania Leigh

 

Lock yourself in and bring me the key.
There’s no world for you outside of that door.
Welcome to darkness, a life you have seen
only in nightmares (you’ve been here before).
 
Bring to me now what you know I need.
Satiate my hunger, allow me to feed.
You know how I like to watch you bleed,
and it amuses me to hear you plead.
 
I can’t feel pity, so don’t complain.
Extend me your neck, Love, surrender a vein.
Surrender your body, your soul, and your seed
for a new generation of darkness and greed.
 
What do I have for you in return?
Nothing.
Everything you must earn.
Obedience and loyalty may earn my trust, but
deny me or defy me and I’ll turn you to dust
 
It’s not a bad life if you learn to behave.
Accept that I’m Master and you are my slave.
Until I tire of you and set you free, it’s
under my command that you will be.
 
Come now, my timid subservient lover
Don’t be afraid, you’ve no need for cover
You will not feel pain, in that you can trust
You’ve already satisfied well my bloodlust
 
It’s your body I want now, for sins of the flesh
Lay me down here and let our bare bodies mesh
No pain, only pleasure as we become one
In my quest for the treasure, a dark prince….a son

This is a real masterpiece. Every word is carefully chosen--you use no worn out phrases--it's all fresh and flows nicely together. Your story unfolds so nicely, even though the content speaks evil. You really are the Queen of Macabre and have a special touch with the dark stuff. You stand out as a writer who can deliver dark with a classy touch.

This is good. Not "horror" dark, but I thought quite light hearted dark. Just a question, did you intend the rhyming format of the first two verses to be different from the rest? I do love poetry that rhymes.

Well worded and images beautifully painted onto a canvas, that we know will soon be stained by blood.
Great Job!
