All The Promises We Made

'Son' he said,
'Yes?' I said

'Your mother is dead'
And he put his hand upon my head

I looked up to the thick, dark cloud
And watched snow fall like a funeral shroud

'Can you save her?' I weeped and on my knees begged
And he looked at me in sympathy and said;

'Yes, I can save her, but it will be an eternity'
'I know, but you should' I agreed

'Very well', but 'nothing will ever be the same'
'All the promises you made'

'Are void' He said,
Baring his teeth

The pain lasted forever , but when
This was over, I glimpsed her

Sweet face, her deep red hair,
My mother; a vampire.

Immortal

*100th Opuss*. Drip drip, tick tock. Time is just one big clock. Colors all iridescent. An old nation, a new discovery. A new invention, an old story. Things change fast. But I can remember the past.

A Dark Coronation

#beginningline #nightdwellers. Unaware of what lurked. In the darkness ahead. The young girl carried on. Without caution or dread. She had made this very journey. On many occasion.
