Undead Embrace - vampire poem by Neil Benson

Whenever I run,

wherever I hide,

your dark presence finds me.

It fills me with fear.

It fills me with joy.

I try to resist you,

but my will always fails me.

I am drawn back to you,

across distance and time.

Memories of pleasures,

no mortal could imagine.

Feelings of pain,

no mortal could endure.

My resistance fades,
 the closer I come.

Your dark Castle in front of me,

where you've lived for all time.

I go to your chamber,

to submit to your will.

Your perfect face before me,

a goddess of death.

Your pale white lips,

and dark blue eyes,

draw me to your netherworld.

Your mind caresses my cheek,

and strokes my body,

until I am aflame.

Closer you come,

and I show you my neck,

Ecstasy overwhelms me,

with the sharpest of pain.
