Dracula's Heart
I'm the vampire
even long after you've forgotten
stolen each other's heart
but my cruelty still rains
just never for your eyes
a kiss from your angel lips
soothes my wretched soul
unfortunately it's no cure
for I am the monster
one I've embraced long ago
created by a wicked witch
now I'm the wickedness
hate builds like blind faith
I want to see the villagers misery
blood dripping down from white walls
I pretend not be this creature
so many years and I start to forget
fooling myself but never forever
I grab and grip your hand
as if it's the last time
because soon it will be
for I am scared
of the absentee in the mirror
wish I could see what you see
but all I see is nothing
I'm the wrong
I'm the right
I'm the wolf in your house
that you don't seem to mind
has me asking why?
why do you love me the way you do?
exposing my fangs to this cold world
sinking them in every worthless cattle
until I'm captured
and they burn me away from you
even long after you've forgotten
stolen each other's heart
but my cruelty still rains
just never for your eyes
a kiss from your angel lips
soothes my wretched soul
unfortunately it's no cure
for I am the monster
one I've embraced long ago
created by a wicked witch
now I'm the wickedness
hate builds like blind faith
I want to see the villagers misery
blood dripping down from white walls
I pretend not be this creature
so many years and I start to forget
fooling myself but never forever
I grab and grip your hand
as if it's the last time
because soon it will be
for I am scared
of the absentee in the mirror
wish I could see what you see
but all I see is nothing
I'm the wrong
I'm the right
I'm the wolf in your house
that you don't seem to mind
has me asking why?
why do you love me the way you do?
exposing my fangs to this cold world
sinking them in every worthless cattle
until I'm captured
and they burn me away from you

Love the narrative that unfolds in this one as it speaks to being bound to a precious love; irrespective, of whether it’s right or wrong whilst navigating the ebb & flow.
A stellar spill...🧛
