Blood and Thorn
Your neck quivers below my bite
Scarlet nectar to drink like wine
Skin as pale as the moon at night
One sharp kiss to make you mine
You are the rose and I, the thorn
Forever night, forbidden morn
Across centuries, a love forlorn
Free from death, together sworn
One prick of the thorn and I drink
Red sustenance seeps from the wound
Hungrily, I feed until death’s brink
Bloodlust in the light of the moon
Rose and thorn, hunger and desire
Flesh to touch, two souls afire
Pain eternal hidden in deep desire
Children of the night, a vampire
