Is she happy?
Her look is not only of beauty
but
Is one of emptiness...
Perhaps she has found love...
And can't spin her web of deceit
To kill the victim she's thinking of...
By drinking only his blood.
So she looks back on her life
Wondering...
Is love worth the gamble of sacrifice?
Is it's beauty greater than
My webs of lies and immortality?
Her heart now striken with such feelings
Quivers and trembles...
As she thinks what true love might be...
What would it be like to enjoy the day?
Could love be like immorality?
Could love make me more beautiful?
Changing my heart to warmth
And one that could melt with passion?
Whatever magical force love has...
Its trying to break my cold heart
And give me new insights. . .
Of what beauty might lie hidden within me..
I could once again see my reflection
That was stolen when I was bitten!
Because she is still a Dark Angel
Her inner battles chain her wrists...
to
Win her heart...
Telling her not to change...
But still she wonders...
Is Love more magical than my life?
The one I've returned to....

I took this prompt the other way..for I find it hard to write about dark forces of evil. Here the dark angel questions her life rather than take it from others...

Hello beautiful soul,
I love the way you took the prompt the other way,How the dark angel questions her life rather than take it from others...
I like it when a poet can see something different in a prompt.I too have trouble writing about a dark force.So this idea of yours to turn the prompt around is a wonderful idea.I enjoyed your write very much,and I wish you all the best in the contest.Take care sweet heart and much love and happiness to you.
