Ageless Beauty

by Shadowdance

Whispers time across my brow
Portraying happiness and sorrow
Kindness granted, have I been
For all that I have seen.

Ageless beauty, that I am
Formed from lust and greed
Ripped apart my insides
Making me a new breed.

Sleep by day, rise at night
Stalking victims as I may
Guardians watching over me
Through the light of day.

Through the centuries passing
I have been alone
I seek the one with whom to share
My death, my passion, my home.

Comes to me now this hapless victim
Moral questions come to bear
I take him, make him anyway
Because with him I wish to share.

After the change has taken place
And he is no longer ensnared
He leaves me, hates me, for what I've done
Damn, this is what I feared.

Whisper time across my brow
Portraying happiness and sorrow
Someday I'll kill the one who made me
For causing me all this pain.
