I am a Vampire
I stay distant
My sin keeps me out of the Sun
I guard my secrets
with supernatural remits
Memories seared on my brain
remain like scar tissue
Blood is my motivation
I only stop to eat
At night I live
In the day I sleep.
I carry darkness without guilt.
Even half-life must go on.
No religion, no ultimate consequence.
Retribution is in not burning.
I’m more than duality
More than demon or morality
The yin-yang fallacy
Grey is complex but
Black and white is a fantasy.
Every fortnight i attend confession
But I have given up on heaven
I just try to follow the lessons
And do right by my brethren.
My world only has antiheroes
