The city lights danced across her face,
A mirage of blue and black stripes
Swimming over her eyes, lips and cheeks
As if shes under water.

"You can't hold on much longer."
The voices echoed in her mind,
As a full moon escaped
A velvet canvas of clouds
Only to send a sheer light upon her face.
"We have found you...

Vampire..."


Seconds latter, only the faint sound
Of her breath echoed in the shadows
As she hid, perfectly still in the alley way

Waiting

Always waiting.
