Sonnet Sunday’s: Here or There
I
sit here alone on this melancholy night
Waiting
patiently for my clock to strike midnight
Jasmine
incense and burning candles light my room
All
the while, my morbid heart is filled with her gloom
I
have been this way for the past three hundred years
My
wife is gone, and I hold back my vampire tears
Please
don’t get me wrong, for I love what I am
Two
nights hence her death, and now I don’t give a damn
Maybe
my fate would be if I walked in the sun
Perhaps
I should go out for some vampiric fun
Dark
thoughts of the sweet crimson running down my throat
Hold
on one second, let me grab my black trench coat
Flying
up high, I’m searching the city streets
Don’t
care if they’re sober or to the wind two sheets
Ponder
if I should continue my existence
The
search for living blood is still my persistence
By
a stroke of luck, I find the man of the hour
So
quickly I descend so I can devour
His
bronzed skin is so perfect that my fangs must pierce
Taking
out a clump of flesh, my eyes look so fierce
In
the rapture, I forget about my woman
Guzzling
my treat, he now knows I’m inhuman
Having
my fill, his body falls to the cold ground
I’ll
continue to live and don’t care if he’s found
