tears that burn [a vampire love poem]

I remember your hands
Cold and pale
Like fresh moonlight on my skin.
I was the sun to your night,
You said I brought you light
Something you had not seen in too long.

When I woke up, I could not find you,
I felt the tears, so hot they burned.
I ran for hours into the dark woods,
I ran through life for a year.

Then I met her, she gave me a smile,
Fangs showed bright in the streetlights.
I said that I wanted, so very badly,
To see you again, that was when she bit my neck.

Darling I have been trying so hard
Just to keep a hold on my inner light.
I feel like I have been running every night,
Searching for you, you left to save me
Save me from the life that you lived.

I saw you once, and I felt it again
Tears burning my cheeks for you
Only this time they glowed red.
I was crying out of shame, I failed you,
So many things you wanted me to be
And I still tried so hard to be just like you.

You grabbed me, cold flesh against cold flesh
It feels like ocean water against stone.
I feel your lips press against mine
And whisper in my ears about how I taste divine
All those years and you still float away,
Immortal lives apart though I made my self this way
Just to be with you and now we could never be together
Because you were with me just to feel better.

Some nights I still feel the tears burn
Some warm it is intrusive, so comforting it hurts
Because those tears tell me I still have a chance
A chance at a soul, a chance for a last dance
With someone I want to never let me go
With someone with passion I can no longer show
