Her black hair
falling down
slightly past
her shoulders
her pale skin
illuminated
by the perfect light
of silvery moon
the vampire princess
her soft face
and subtle beauty
masks what lies
beneath in shadow
the heart that beats within
is wide open and searching
for that kindred soul
to soothe for pain
and warm the coldness
that seethes inside
her beloved waits from afar
his heart full of longing
his arms open wishing
for the embrace that
will calm the raging fires
that have tormentedthe heart that beats within
is wide open and searching
for that kindred soul
to soothe for pain
and warm the coldness
that seethes inside
her beloved waits from afar
his heart full of longing
his arms open wishing
for the embrace that
will calm the raging fires
his broken soul
she stands before him
and, as they kiss
the taste lingers
as the moment fades
into eternity
the love they hold
for one another
is the shimmering light
breaking through
the wounded sky
after the storm
this moment
they are alone
together
such a beautiful interlude
as she whispers,
I love you
he responds in kind
under the glimmering stars
she smiles as he says
I will never let you go.
