Blood Tears

Her Tear drops fall like acid rain,

as she looks at herself through soulless eyes.

 

A simple life, of happiness lost through temptation.

Whispers of promise lured her, now death surrounds her.

 

The hopes and dreams she use to have scattered to the night winds

now nameless faces are her crimsons passion.

 

Once where there had been beauty and sunshine is now only

darkness and shadows.

Creatures of the underworld that she only thought as fiction

are now her own harsh reality.

 

Beautiful to the eye, yet ugliness is her life.

She is forever cursed, she lives to see others die,

and she will always cry blood tears.

This reminds me of the character that I created Countess Evelynn Valkzak, and her great sadness she has for her life. I do love your Vampire poem and your idea here. But I feel that it could be written better, I believe you can do it, because of the other poetry that I have already review and they are wonderful. Please don't take this to heart, and stop what you do best, I'm not saying you are an awful poet, I'm stating you have the talent just put it to the test, and write your best...This poem needs a little something to make it like your rest, wonderful.

It would be interesting to see how your vampires live their lives beyond this poem ,open your world to us dear :)

This was a heart breaking poem Diana, but it was very good!
I only saw one mistake in it and I'm sure it was just a typo.

"she lives to she others die"

I think you meant..................

"she lives to see others die."

But besides that great work. Thanks for sharing.

this piece is a little darker than i normally read, but i like it a lot. the imagery is fantastic and draws you in immediately.

this is a very well done piece.

[Amanda Crandall]

sounds like the prequel to a story. Yes, a dark poem, somber-like reflection.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Wow I love stories of Vampires and this is a really dark but beautiful poem... Love It.

Fascinating work. The melancholy of the undead is presented vividly here. This is lovely.

(I think you meant she lives to see others die... not she others die)
