Onyx black witches cloaks ripple like toxic water. Pearly white ghosts swirling through deathly silent, obsidian graveyards. Dazzling crimson eyes pierce with deadly glare.
#nightdwellers. There's a derelict place at the end of the lane. A place that once housed the criminally insane. Bars on the cracked windows and rusty locks on the doors.
Four of us towards the town, Our handsome brows creased to a frown. Searching for a meal for us, A quiet drink - no need for fuss.
#acorn #nightdwellers Fingers trace the smoke grey glass, Thick fog pours through the ashen grass, The sky is jet, a vast expanse, The black horizon takes its stance.
Cold hearts line the frosted floor, As hallow flames light up the door, Black tears of night fall to the ground, Crescendo hues spark all around.
Death, looming, the ominous sight,. Howling screams all through the night,. Shouting, searching, calling my name,. But I shall not play death's twisted game,. Hooded figure, pure darkness, cloaked,.
#description. A loner. Who's hardly ever seen. Skin as pale. as vanilla ice cream. A nocturnal creature. Who owns the moonlight. You don't want to meet him. in the middle of the night. A predator.
Hollow, hallow, dark and shallow, Rig the heart and charge the gallows, Passing, laughing, ever graphing, Weepers needed for the staffing.
Creature of the night, a shadow by day,. For when the sun rises, it must hide away,. Blood drips off lily-white fangs,. Jet black pelt where moonlight hangs,. Eyes on fire with blackened flames,.
Whip of lightning, crack of rain, A sheet of thunder, down again, The midnight clouds engulf the sky, As, one by one, the ravens die.
Flicker in the darkness,. A faerie in the haze,. Lost lover, so obsolete,. Struck down by midnight's gaze,. Wander, lost by moonlight,. Warm heart yet oh so cruel,. Icy cold and elegant,.
You have your hands. outstretched in the dark,. Behind the spark of soulless eyes,. The door. inside your mind,. Died along with the flames in your eyes,. Left carved. into a world of lies,.
Red wine has trickled away down thirst-bitten throats while curling, blackening, corners sparkle in the fire; the rejected passions of a lover's notes, The mirror-skin of water turns to ice,...
#nature. Scales of razors. Fangs of fright. Sinuous form. Eyes that invite. Your soul from your body. Your heart from you head. He slithers down tree trunk. upon your deathbed. Eyes like jewels.
Onyx tears flow from my eyes. Deaths younger sister. In a beautiful disguise. Dyed black is my heart. Once as cold as this stone. Turn you to memories dust. From skin and bone. No longer can I bear.
Lips so wide and tangled hair, Face holds her unnerving stare, Tipped white fangs and darting tongue, So very old, yet she seems young.
Breathing slow,. eyes closed,. Under cold sheets of snow,. Frozen over,. holding your valentines rose,. Hidden underneath the rainbows,. Below painted silhouettes & shadows,.
#nature #snow A vocious sneer behind your smile, To fool a man just for a while. A smell of death behind your wings, Like crismon scarlet in the snow.
Black hardened eyes cold & dry,. Staring out into night,. Looking into a puddle of blue,. Reflecting the moon dangling in the sky,. No reflections. of a vampires existence of life,.
#nightdwellers Slowly, ever so, dark as gem, The night falls down upon my face, Its onyx bittersweet sharp liquid, Gushes down my throat, like lace.
#nightdwellers Fingers trace the smoke grey glass, Thick fog pours through the ashen grass, The sky is jet, a vast expanse, The black horizon takes its stance.
#nightdwellers. Translucent kisses laid down,. As silent sacrifice,. On this now-cold crown,. The peace of our mistrust,. Slow, sensual metal at rust,. Won't you believe and see,. At first light,.
I slowly sit, upon my throne, Of jade and ice and crafted stone, I take my staff within my hand, As I gaze out, across the land.
Carved deep in the rocks out by the sea, Silver rain bleeds down the cement walls, Air thick & musty from the tears they bleed, darkening the sun & killing the trees, Spirits manifest a lost...
