“This body is lifeless, cold, and hollow—
You cannot know what you ask for, for I,
I am the One many men would ****
For I am he who walks the night,
That which prowls the Darkness,
Forsaken by the light,
I am he they call the Beast.
O my love it is you that I seek—
For you to be my loving wife
In eternal love and everlasting life—
Yet, I cannot put onto you death,
For I love you too much to
Condemn you, lest take your breath!”
--Bram Stoker’s Dracula
O my love but I am dead if I
Am to walk this Earth never to hold you.
T’would be to walk in Hell; a place
Where my love cannot reach you.
Give me life eternal, let me walk
Beside you my Dark Prince.
Into you, let me breathe my last breath
For if I was to walk this Earth alone
T’would surely be death!
Then let my love sink into thee—
My love; drink of me, come into me and
We’ll be together in immortality.
Open your eyes and see what I see,
Breathe what I breathe.
Live with me at my side, as my bride
For a love as ours is sure to never die.
