A self-hating vampire? How sad.
By Swift
The dawn's light shines on the calm pond,
It sparkles in a way where you cannot see it at any other time.
If a photo was taken, a masterpiece would stay inside
Forever.
Tall trees surrounding, going around each side.
Even if the sun is shining,
I know not to hide.
I fear the bright rays, but these trees protect me
It is just like a large boat being protected by the sea.
The crimson drops stain my skin as I wipe liquid from my mouth,
I dip my hands in that crystal water to wash the taste of tin
It comes off quickly, blood is simple to get off the skin.
As I sit against a chocolate trunk, my mind flashes back.
I just took a life, a young woman's blood.
Curses come upon me as I despise who I am,
Living by taking the lives of others, it is hard to bear.
Sometimes I just go without,
Though it gets overwelming.
In a brief moment I come to a conclusion.
I hide with my cloak and go to a wide clearing.
I admire the view for this one last time.
I remove my armor and instantly I feel the suns piercing.
A split second and life pauses, a thought comes to mind:
Maybe I will be reborn?
Time returns and I silently mutter to myself
I suppose life is tough as a creature of the night,
Wandering through life, unable to see the suns light.

Thank you =). Hm.. It may have been an imagery assignment, actually. We did have random things like that like metaphors or something for homework(maybe I'll post those). Ha, I love writing but usually I get something like this if it's forced :p
