Redemption

In my crypt, I await,

The setting of Apollo.

Tonight I have a date.

...

My blackend heart,

Does beat once more,

Like a stuttering motors start.

...

Oh joy and jubilation! 

This curse I have bourne,

Fades like tintinabulation!

...

Her warm touch I yearn,

To feel upon my cold.

She, I will never turn.

...

This rose so pure,

Of delicate white,

Has taken me for sure.

...

Tonight of nights,

I cast aside, immortality! 

For fleeting moments delights!

...

Upon the evening wind,

I fly with yearning haste,

For your kiss I wish to find.

...

In my arms embrace,

I forsake the dark.

Whilst gently caress your face.

...

I am alive once more!

Blood flows through my veins.

We have changed ancient lore.

...

Tonight we slumber together,

Our warm bodies cuddling close.

No more parting from one another.

...

Alive so alive, just to breathe,

Smell your sweet fragrance.

My love to you I bequethe. 

...

Centuries I did savour,

Upon bloods life essence.

Many sins did I harbour.

...

First light does strike out,

Flinch in anticipation,

Scared I was, without a doubt!

...

Your eyes flutter wide.

In them I see myself!

Night and day, here by my side.
