~Letters From A Vampyre~ (The Last of the Vampyre Prose)

I write you letters
I write you spells
Still you insist
Into my mind you must delve
I hear the ticking
Hear it too
Is it the clock
Or my heart frozen blue
Sending fever written notes
Bleeding my soul on the parchment
The only way I can dare
To whisper these things to you
By candlelight
Spurred by suffocation of night
I sit
And I write
I touch you in my dreams
I hear the silence of your screams
Dare not let you look upon my face
Frigid stare upon alabaster skin
Your blood stains my chin
My icy lips
I resign myself to sending these letters
Forever writing as I sit at this old desk
Sending you pieces of me
My soul…What is left of it
Walking alone
The wet, steaming streets
Night People huddled under gas lamps
In doorways, watching cautiously
Flashing trash neon
Beckoning the despairing ones
Stench of smoke and whiskey
Clinging to my dampened clothes
I see them
Yes, they see me
But choose not to
I only see you
When my eyes close at daybreak
The essence of your flesh
Drips through my cold bones
…Lonely here without you
But I know when the night melts over me
I’ll sit at my desk
Pen in my hand
Touching you as the ink flows
As close as I’ll ever get
But for the embrace I give you as you sleep
Dreary,
This life
I as darkness, you as light
Ever parted by this world of light and shadows
I search and exist within
Writing still
Not wanting to stop
But my hunger grows
Beyond my window I hear life
Coursing veins and sweet scented blood
When sated I am
To you, be sure
I will come
Hidden in shadows
Touching you softly
Just a taste of your heart
Then gone
As you are fresh on my lips
My head swimming erotically
My heart thundering excitedly
I’ll sit back here and begin to write
Endless letters to you

Until all again tomorrow Night.

The Mess Of Writing

So, some of you know I pretend to be a writer. I was a prolific and mildly talented writer in my past. I dreamed novel sized stories, but could never get past the short ones, there were a couple I wrote out to 150 pages with the outline and general story written out, but they died there. It took me years to both realize and then accept, that I was no good at anything but some hybrid of prose and poetry that is heavily non conforming to the accepted rules of writing, grammar and english. My problem is rooted somewhere in one or more of my mental illnesses, I just can't absorb nor comprehend (translate to an understandable example) accepted structure and rules for any type of writing.  The words go down on the paper the way they come into my head. They don't want to be amended, they come into my head the way my mind perceives them to be correct and meaningful to what I am trying to express, which in my skewed brain, is the correct form, again, to ME, but maybe not to anyone else....

Just Think Blogsitive

For whatever reason, Facebook altering the "mood" of the Feed or just people picking up on the same theme of a few reposted sayings; I've been seeing so much over the last few weeks about thinking/being positive and being happy is a choice. Believe me you, I tried. I tried so hard for so long. It was like mining, every day I would go to work with my pick and with everything I had, go at that dark, stifling underground of resistant rock with my polished, shining pick, flashing brilliantly in the dust filled muted ray of light struggling down, striking in a dazzling tiny shower of sparks, tiny stars lighting the edge of the black hole lurking beside me, that feeling of what could be hidden just below the surface, something amazing just waiting for the proper angle of my next strike...that never comes. Oh, I get the thin, reedy vein of something momentarily in the right light flashing and promising...it may be a lesser find. It will momentarily fund the repair of my pick or...

Seriously?

Originally Written by the13thcynic October 6, 2009 at 5:13 PM I cannot be serious. Seriously. I can’t. I keep trying and it never works, I just can’t BE serious. I can fully appreciate serious and situations that are… I can understand it, hold it, feel it, express it in other ways, I just cannot *be…have* nor verbally reply seriously unless I really fight to accomplish such. Felt the need to see it in words. Carry on then. I am not stupid. I am not shallow. I’m not unfeeling nor simple, clueless, ridiculous, uneducated, uncultured or ignorant. I’m just me. Which is a bit more than a bit much to take for some.
