Finally a vampire poem was submitted to continue on with Vampire Poetry Monday. Please, please, please anyone with vampire poetry please submit. Thanks!
My Life, My Love, My Blood
Through my life, my love, my blood - You live.
Seeking the mortal, from immortality.
Claws tear at my skin.
Seeking the essence of life within.
And I, by choice, give in, to your sweet subtle sin.
You live your lost life through my blood.
You, who have lived far beyond regular reality.
Akin to your own muse am I.
And you shall weep those blood tears when I die,As *Louis had wept for *Claudia.
My breasts bleed, nicked by your ferocious fangs,
As you seek the womb of my breeding being.
You know it will come, your senses have gleaned
And you will savour my secret spate to placate your pangs.
And in those moments of great despair
You will miss me when I’m no longer there
You will crave me, as the life you once loved
The life you once had, the life that gave you blood.
*Characters from Anne Rice’s “The Vampire Chronicles”

Awesome and emotional. This is one of my faves from Sue. :-)
You just never know exactly what awaits you within the pages of a book. It makes sense to eat loads of garlic and know protection charms.
Thanks Rae!!
And thank you Roxanne, it's been an honour and a pleasure being featured on your site.
I look forward to submitting more vamp-y poems to you in the near future!
