Just unrelenting paralysis
upon which the ravens dine.

Vampire Virus
Once upon a Lullaby,
Darkened shadows hunt and cry,
Once inside a midnight dream,
Vampires live and humans scream.
'You can run, and twist and turn,
but in the end you'll writhe and burn.'
Immortal tales their bite it weaves,
like ancient trees they spread and bleed.
Their poison passed from man-to-man,
killing fast wherever it can,
It can't be cured and can not be seen,
but in the end it will rule supreme.
