My blood, is mine without question

Something I do not share with others

I knew I would not

How foolish I was


But then the man covered in white came one night

He came only to charm me 

He made my heart pump out more blood than I needed

I felt as if I would burst


At night, I would cut myself, and pour the blood into a mug

So much, and only for my heart to produce more

What would profit me from all this blood

The beautiful dark knight had made messed with my heart

Now, I will forever spill so much blood


I will share the gallon of blood that I have

That I said to myself

The vampire of the darkly night, is who I shall share with

He is the one who made me spill so much blood

He is the one that should take it


I gave him the mugs filled with my blood

And there I watched, as he drank every single drop

There I stood, as I happily watch him enjoy my blood

And just like that, I found myself in love

I would spill all the blood only to feed the dark knight

For the man I love so much


I saw how wonderful he was, everything perfect he be

Heaven he gave me in exchange for my blood

Forever we promised each other

Forever I would share

Forever he would there to drink the blood I give him


Nothing last forever the world told me

Something I thought was not true

‘Forever is there, our love is forever’ I screamed back

How foolish I was


That one night, oh what a dreadful night

My dark knight, he began to be bored with my blood

He tried to hide it, putting on a mask to lie to me

‘I still love the taste of your blood’ he says

But I could see it in his eyes that hid behind the mask


I tried my best to alter the taste of my blood

More sugar maybe?

My blood was sweeter than sugar was, but still the blood bore him

Less sugar, maybe I need less sugar

The new taste seemed to upset him


Spices maybe?

The taste gave him something to look forward to

But soon and once again would he be bored with my blood

Herbs?

Honey?

Cream?


Then I began to steal blood from others

Oh how happy he was to taste the blood of another

Oh how sad I had became

It is was clear

He was meant for another


But as the foolish person I was, I continue to steal from others

To make him happy

Every night I cried

For he would enjoy blood from others

I just wanted him happy, but happy he was not with my blood


Maybe he could see the sadness in my heart

Or maybe he knew the blood he drank was not mines

One night, he let me

Promising to come back

Another lie he told me


I waited years

Hoping that maybe he would miss my blood

Come back to ask for me

And I would pour all the blood I could share

Or even give him all that I had

But then the realization came

He would not come back.


My heart shattered

I could not understand the sadness I felt

How could I live when my heart pumped blood no more

The world was right, I was wrong

But why must the world be right

I hated the world


My blood

Something I learned to share with others

When I thought I couldn’t

I had no more blood in my body.

I was in pain, for the blood I shared could not bring forever happiness

When I once shouted it could forever

I stood there, foolishly telling myself I would never love again


As I stared out into the night, the moon so reassuring

I felt my heart beat once again

My blood

It began to flow through my veins once again

Nothing is forever

This is my first ever poetry, so I'm sorry if it's very messy.
