Inward beast. by Armourus on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

In shadows deep, a creature stirs, A vampire's heart, where darkness whirs, A beast within, both fierce and wild, A hunger deep, by moon beguiled.

Beneath the pallid moonlight's gleam, Its crimson eyes with secrets teem, A cursed life, forever bound, To roam the night, without a sound.

With fangs that gleam, like polished blades, It hunts its prey in moonlit glades, A dance of death, a deadly grace, A predator in endless chase.

Yet deep within, a yearning soul, A tale untold, a past untold, For once, a human heart did beat, Now lost amidst eternal sleet.

A battle fought within its breast, Between the beast and soul's unrest, A longing for the light of day, Yet chained to darkness, come what may.

A tortured existence, cursed to roam, In search of love, a place called home, To quell the thirst, to find some peace, To make the ceaseless torment cease.

Oh, vampire's heart, both fierce and frail, Bound by a curse that tells its tale, A beast within, a soul that's torn, In endless night, forever sworn.
