Vampyr
Darkness alights, suffocating the skies,
Time stands still once more.
I walk alone, sounds sweep over me,
No wind, nothing touches my pale skin.
I try to recall the sun on my face,
Impossible, a far away place,
Where the warmth was once felt.
I shiver, more a reaction to lack of memory,
For I feel not a thing, clinically dead.
Eternity ahead,
I long to breathe again, to inhale the sweet aromas of life.
To taste something other than death.
Acceptance is my next step,
My fate sealed as I roam the Earth.
But I am strength personified,
For I am the undead, nor alive, it's a confusing state.
I know not what runs through my veins,
Nor do I care,
I am neither here nor there,
Always in one place and yet in another.
I walk on.........

That's beautiful, it really is. So short, sentence wise, but also holds such a deep message. That's my favourite type of poetry. I can't write like that because I tend to ramble on, I'm really impressed hun.........

That's some really great work there Ash. Tramples is right, the message is really deep. I don't know what to say to encourage you to write more, but i'd really like to read some more of your work. I really like this poem.

Daddy...
Why’d you have to leave me?
Why couldn’t you stay alive to see
What I have become for you?
You’ve been with me all the way through
But now you’re gone
To the Underworld you have flown...
Daddy...
Why can’t we return the days
When we used to laugh and play?
We’d swirl around the bend
I prayed to God it would never end.
Now I have my restless nights
Without you there to remind me of the light
Daddy...
I wish you were alive now
Maybe I would not be so down
Now all my fears seem so near
Sometimes I can’t even see you clear
You are there in my dreams
But I always seem to return to reality
Daddy...
I know that you’re with me in my heart
And that’s what keeps me on day and night
But I would like to say, Daddy,
That I have met some awfully nice friends
And our loyalty has no ends
So Daddy...
I miss you still
And you always have a special spot to fill
In my heart and in my mind
But now I think I can move on fine
But I will always remember the night
When you reminded me of the light....

You can’t hurt me now
Because you are not here
It is funny now because you are far away
Maybe some day I may look back
And think of the times we had
You can’t hurt me now
I got away from you.
Never thought I would
You can’t make me shed one tear
I can’t believe I survived it
Now I laugh at what happen back then
You can’t hurt me no more

You Are Still Here
You are still here
Here in my head
Why are you doing this
This to me
You have died so long ago
You are in my dreams
This makes them nightmares
Which how they can be terrible nightmares
I wish you would just let me be
Be with everyone but you
So I can experience life without you
But, I know all you are doing is protecting me
Believe in me, that I can take care of myself
But you are still here
Here to let me know you still love me
Here to let me know I’m still your little girl
I love you with all of my heart
But why did you still have to die
I know you loved me with all of your heart
But why did you have to leave me
You are still here
And I know that very well
I know you will always be here too
And I want to you know
I will love and miss you
For always father
