The Curse

A feral desire called upon by the moon and answered by the beast.

I sigh as the darkness slowly creeps its way over my eyes

The low feral growl in my throat sings its song of death

As the taste of blood dances across my palate

 

The thirst has returned…

 

My conscious has once again coward somewhere in the recess

While the hunger burns its way through my veins

Scorching out every last human sentiment

 

There’s no fighting this…

 

The moon smiles its curse upon me

And the beast is answering its call

Clawing its way to the surface

 

There’s no hope…

 

For me for I will devour all who cross my path

Eternal damnation, hell on earth, rivers of blood

An unending battle of feral desire and a haunted conscious

 

My heaven is the blood…

I think you mean "cowered" not "coward" in line 5

This read like a prelude to a werewolf story. You managed to capture a lot of interest with your vivid imagery. Enjoyed. ( : O )

I suffer from Bipolar Disorder and this describes my very worst days. Beautifully well written on such a dark topic.

Thank you for reading this. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I agree, writing wise I think we do have a lot in common. I've subscribed to your writing and can't wait to get the chance to read some more of your stuff.

amazing write!
Bloodlust is a poison to me, and it crawls throughout me and into others like a disesase. A communicable disesase.
Any way, i enjoyed this write. very dark and sick but in a good way.

hmm. bloodlust can be a tough addiction to conquer. they don't make a patch for that. ;)

great piece. I fully enjoyed this. puts a newer and more edged personal spin on the vampire feel.

cheers!
