Twilight

I

Twilight on the grave
Dew settles in the night
A paranormal heart I crave
By warm candlelight

Moisture kissed quagmire
Two hearts vapid sound
Yearning eyes afire
True love’s been found

I take you in my arms
Fetid smell across a skin
Like faded floral charms
Flesh parched thin

My sweet undead lover
In a coffin, vie quelled breath
Through the tears I discover
I fear not Lamia's death

II

O lover how I wept
Lost in the night
In your arms swept
Warmed by candlelight

I long for an embrace
Ignite my cadaver heart
Caressing your sweet face
Smitten by love’s dart

In stasis we embellish folklore
Within shadows of the dark
Entombed on the moor
Where times leaves no mark

Entwined thorns of a rose
Yearning eternal laughter
As one we decompose
Thriving in the here-after
