Insatiable Hunger

By Deathkitten

Your apparition seems so solid to me
Nevertheless, a transparent dream
You had me screaming like a banshee
I'll court you still
Until my dying death
The reaper may take away
what it is that I don't need
I'll stay here with you
In my black velvet cloak
and my loving familiar at my side
I know it was such a grisly mess
to leave without your other half
Your best
To long for my famous bite
The one that tore your chest
Wide open...
As my casket awaits
I'm blood fucking thirsty
And I need another taste
Before the sun may rise
There are no alibis
Not now nor ever
I was always that clever
I don't need my scythe
No, not tonight
Pins, needles, teeth & nails
They all shall suffice
and when I am done
Will I be satisfied?
I'll return unto the mausoleum
Where i'll lay in wonder
Just what was I thinking?
A hunger that fierce
leaves them all screaming
Satisfied, I'll not be
Until the lives I take away
begin to fill me...
