The Song Of Mia

I hear a song among the night
A haunting sad refrain
A melody, a sad lament
That speaks of anguished pain

It calls to me in haunted dreams
It echoes in my sleep
A woman's voice a distant call
That causes me to weep

She speaks my name in dulcet tones
I feel her every where
And as her voice floats round my bed
I feel her steady stare

She calls to me this shadow voice
A luring trance like air
As gentle as the softest kiss
It's more than I can bear

"Come to me love I need you here"
"I'm so alone you see"
"I am a victim of the night"
"Cursed through eternity"

"I'm Mia of the Vampyre realm"
"I hunger for your heart"
"Please come my love, to be with me"
"And never to depart"

"Please kiss my hungry ruby lips"
"Caress my raven hair"
"Embrace me love I need your touch"
"Please hurry to my lair"

Compelled to go I cannot stop
I rise up from my bed
Too scared to move I venture out
To play among the dead

I feel my body float on air
My feet are off the ground
Through silence of this darkest night
I hear her gentle sound

"That's right my love please come to me"
"You'll soon be at my door"
"My passion is too much to bear"
"Be mine forever more"

"I feel the heat inside of you"
"It pulsates with a beat"
"Please come to me my sweetest love"
"I need to feel your heat"

Her tomb a dark foreboding sight
A sensual affair
In colors of a bloody red
Is Mia's vampyre lair

~~~

Her beauty is beyond compare
I lust for her in sin
She gently takes me by my hand
Beguiled as we begin

Her luscious lips so full and moist
Caress my face and hands
A gentle lick upon my neck
I do what she commands

We lay down in a satin box
That's trimmed in gold and lace
A look of purest ecstasy
A smile is on her face

~~~

"Please look at me don't turn away"
"I'm yours to do your will"
"Caress my flesh with lusting hands"
"Your life then I shall spill"

Our bodies move in heated lust
A gentle throbbing beat
And as we end our sinful dance
I sense a sad defeat

She suckles at my throbbing neck
A piercing pain so rare
I lay there still I cannot move
At least i shouldn't dare

~~~

The morning comes the sun is up
I find myself in bed
I reminisce about my dream
And of the living dead

The song will come again tonight
Nocturnal lust so right
Lured from my bed on songs she sings
My Mia of the night

    Excellent. You really have something with your Mia character. I know these are last years goodies, but I'm new to the site!

    your mia of the night does sound
    like a treasure rarely found
    beautiful and horney too
    sounds like the woman for you.

    You my friend are incredible, I am thoroughly enjoying Mia. You write with a dark sensuality that caresses me and perhaps in a sense, I feel as if I am her.

    Ruby lips, raven hair, eyes that glow seductively. She waits for the shadows to fall where she is once again alive in her immortality.

    This piece is so sensually beautiful. The imagery of this vampress so beautiful, sensual, intoxicating.

Thank you for entering my contest! Good luck to you

    This poem is one of the most well written I have ever read, your rhyme format was constant throught, and it never felt forced. The flow was so steady. I am giving this a bookmark my friend! And I really liked the sensual but not overtly sexual nature of the piece. Great job!

    Very good.

    Well done. You describe the lure of tempation well. It's interesting how you use the pain of loniness and sadness as the lure.

    Excellently written with a very good use of rhythm and rhyme. It tells a story very well and keeps the reader's attention throughout it. You avoided many cliches about vampires that could have been made and finished with an intriguing, original story. The attention you made to the details added even more to it, bringing the reader in closer, allowing them to imagine the scenario in their mind through each stanza along with the great use of imagery. A very wonderful piece this is. Good luck in the contest.

    You have the ability to hypnotize us with the words you write. When the rhyme and meter are this perfect...it just lulls you.. pulling you deeply to this lucious dark place you speak of.

    You do very excellent work... but I'm sure you already know that.

    Mia is such a lovely name. Especially for a vampyre. I'm so used to unique names I can barely understand yet she has such a simple short, yet lovely, name. I simply adore these stories of Mia. They're wonderful :).

    Whispered voice on misty scent
    in a dark and sultry chant
    Willing mind to will away
    but finding that you can't
    secrets on the night bequeath
    the soul to vampire teeth

    Lovely indeed!!

    spellbinding

    These poems are of great interest to me. It's rare to find someone that can capture the subject, though. This write is as spellbinding as Mia's sinful song. After reading this one, I will defenitely be reading more. Again, great write!

    A fare of finest fantasy tale, set before our eyes,
    A scan and rhyme so well worked, the mystery never dies,
    I’m glad you found your ecstasy; it sure sounds loads of fun,
    But on a rather sadder note – night shift is to come…

    Why do vampires spend hundreds of years practicing, only to be knocked off by twits with twigs?

    Fangtastic.

    It is hard to find a good poem about vampires, but this is a good one! I like the steady beat and how it flows, it doesn't hiccup or trip, I like this a lot. Cool background and color choice too! And please forgive the bad pun below, I can't help myself sometimes.

    Johnny,

    You are a master at story telling, at enrapture, enticing...and a whole bunch of other things that would just take up way to much room to print here. If you give me the ok, I'll send you a look for Mia...*grins slightly* I have a bit of a soft spot for the vampires as it's what I play in my RP *Grins* Wonderfully passionate write Johnny, terrifying and intoxicating all at once...I believe I'm breathless *S*

    8.2/10

    I don't like the 'among' in the first line even as 'amongst' I don't think it sounds good. Just don't agree with the usage of that word.

    As the flow (in my opinion) of Scott, not language but the flow. A great piece here, just don't like that one word in the first line.

    Thoughts of Vampires have always unnerved me. However the female vampire was always beautiful in the movies and the poor hapless man was always drawn by her etheareal beauty. As in this case, you managed to turn an eerie story into a sensual feast, I enjoyed it so much.

    Wow. I usually don't care to much for the vanpire poems, but this was great. You've really drawn me into this one. This had a really nice flow. Wonderful. I'm gonna print this one out and show it to my sister. She's always had a fascintation with the undead.
