Lilith a Poem

This poem is about perhaps the most ancient vampire of them all. Hope you like it anyway.

I was feeling dejected, drowning in a reservoir of my own sadness,
Sitting alone in the dark among the deepening shadows of despair,
Mourning a love gone forever, I felt myself on the edge of madness,
Waiting for death to come and release me from my melancholy fears,
Suddenly, a vivacious lady of pure wanton beauty stood before me,
She looked at me sullenly through strangely hypnotic dark eyes,
She smiled at me with a smile that held within it a deep mystery,
A smile that beckoned to me, but I couldn't help wondering why.
She introduced herself as Lilith and offered me her elegant hand,
I took it in mine, I kissed her fingers, and told her my own name,
As she sat beside me I felt an anxiousness I couldn't understand,
But I didn't know then, what I know now.
I didn't know her true aim.

I was mesmerized by the words of love she filled my thoughts with,
Seducing me with all her tales of the natural beauty of passion,
Telling me to relax, that it was much better to receive than to give,
Before too long we were naked together in an avaricious liaison.
I couldn't stop her, I seemed to be hypnotized by her seduction,
I tried to fight it, but it was so much easier to give into her lust,
I couldn't have known then that I was being used for reproduction,
To feed this monstrous demon created, like Adam, from the dust.
For how could I, a non believer, have known this Lilith was a devil?
When my atheistic learnings had taught me there was no such thing.
Now I'm racked with remorse and guilt at the part I played in her evil.
I'll never forget the horror of watching as she devoured her offspring!

As One With the Vampire

he came on to me in the dead of night,
Like a ghost, she came out of nowhere,
I was mesmerized by her hypnotic eyes,
While my mind was saying, "don't go there".
But I couldn't break the erotic spell,
She cast in my direction,
I looked all around, but couldn't find help,
It was left to my own discretion,
To make my choice and take my chance,
And give into my desires,
And join in her erotic dance,
And become as one with the vampire.

And we danced until my heart was content,
Beneath the stars we danced through the night,
The erotic dance of a lover's lament,
So haunting and spiritual, it set my soul alight.
Her beauty cast it's shadow upon me,
As it softly and gently touched my skin,
And filled me with a longing to concede,
My body and my soul to the wind.
The wind on which she traveled with ease,
Would take her to where her heart desired,
And tonight her heart desired me,
And I became as one with the vampire.

Locked in her wondrous spell of seduction,
I dared not run, I could not flee,
I watched the disappearance of my own reflection,
As she drank my blood and fed off me,
My horror soon gave way to the realization,
Of the immortality bestowed on me,
And the wondrously erotic sensation,
Known only to the vampire's creed.
I owe it all to this huntress of the night,
This lady known only as Carmilla,
The one who granted me eternal life,
And made me as one with the vampire.
