Transformation

Under rays of silver light

Eerie beauty of the night

You lure me in, I fall and drown

You drag my limp body across the ground

Faint is my heartbeat, shallow my breathing

"No, not just yet" you continue repeating

I finally pass out, and no longer know

Where I am in this blanket of snow





My eyes slowly open to see you there

with blood down you face and streaked in your hair

My neck is aching, my body shaking

and in my head I am debating

whether to try to escape and run,

or see what comes with the morning sun





But I can't move my body, so that plan is shot

and then I realize I'm burning hot

The shaking in my limbs accompanies my cringe

and in your gleaming eyes, a tinge of red there is

I try to scream but nothing comes out

I try again, this time managing a shout





"It's no use" you mutter " You're almost complete"

and as you say it, I rise to my feet.

"You're now one of us, there's nothing you can do"

"But why?" I stutter, glaring at you

"Do you not yet see?" you toy playfully

"I made you to be with me"





"I don't understand...What am I?"

"You are a vampire" you finally sigh





And as the moon rose silvery white,

Two vampires set out into the night.

Stalking through shadows, hunting their prey

drinking their blood until break of day
