Plea to the Vampire

You, you’re my best friend
You are my guide.
You hide in the light and thrive in the shadows,
Reach for the stars and capture the moon.
Please spread you wings and fly away.


Leap from the path of shining conformity.
Stray from the herd and embrace the wolf.
Dancing in darkness, a child of the night,
An elegant vampire, that’s who you are.
The soul the world tried to slay.



With solemn dignity you consume every room
Your pen on a page morphs myth to reality.
In your wake, I see all that was barred from me.
Through your eyes, I see your soul contained.


Leap from the path of shining conformity.
Stray from the herd and welcome the hunter.
Dancing in darkness, a child of the night,
The elegant vampire, that’s who you are.
The soul the world tried to slay.


Black velvet roses bloom where you stand,
And all Hell’s creatures come at your command.
Heed not the damnation of those who'd silence you.
For from shadows they flee while you stand strong.

Leap from the path of shining conformity.
Stray from the herd and welcome the wolf.
Dancing in darkness, a child of the night,
The elegant vampire, that’s who you are.
The soul the world tried to slay.
