Cold-Blooded

Can vampires feel emotion?
Do they only have one devotion?

They are cold-blooded, yes, but is there more to htme than just killing?
Sucking victims blood, the taste quite full-filling.

Vampires are murderers, there's no mistake, no error,
That they hunt in the night, causing havoc and terror.

They kill for fun, not caring who's life ends,
I'm afraid to walk in the streets alone, chills up my spine it sends.

Till one day I met a boy who changed that, he was nice and kind,
Its like he understands me, knows what goes on in my mind.

He makes me feel like I am safe once more,
Safe and secure, not like before.

He protects me from all the evil, the bad,
With him I am always happy, never sad.

We take moonlite strolls around the grave yard,
But sometimes I feel things are going to get hard.

We spend so much time together,
But there's one problem, I can't live forever.

One day we spoke of this by the park,
He said his bite is worse than his bark,
The pain would only last for a second, wouldn't leave a mark.

So with my life in his hands, I let him bite,
The cool sensation makes me pass out, lose sight.

I feel the life being drained from me,
When I look up at him, its only a monster I see.

Could I have been mistaken,
Now will I be left foresaken?

Suddenly he stops and with a smile,
The one that makes everything worth while.

He slits his wrist and lets me drink,
What has become of me I think.

Then he picks me up, I feel like a boulder,
As we walk side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

He tells me we will live for eternity, just me and him,
Only to be out when the lights are dark or dim.

Have I made the right choice, is this really what I want,
I hope he really loves me, my emotions he did not taunt.

For now I will have to live my life forever as a vampire, only seeing,
A cold-blooded, dark and blood sucking being.
