Sleeping Lover

Tasting blood
dripping everywhere
Why did I bite my love
I have damned him
His soul is forever mine to hold
Sweet blood, white fangs, tears hot as the sun on my skin
I shall chase away his fears
I kiss his lips as he enters sleep
He tells me that his heart is mine to keep
I look down upon his lovely face and I start to cry
and ask him
How can you think that I'm a angel?
I wait for my love to awake
However long it takes.
