Vampire

Vampire is who and what I am
My looks are that of a teenager
Maiden at heart warrior at sight
Certain things I do will make you quiver
I am the queen of the starry night...

Everlasting life and love I carry with me
Yes, I have a heart that most don't possess
In body, mind, spirit, and heart I'm free
But all I want is to be loved even if it's a small caress.

I'm not a cannibal but I enjoy the taste of blood
Some would consider me to be an animal
I have feelings they come at me like a flood
But in the end I'm a human some what and a handful!
