Shadow Fall

Creeping chill overwhelms my soul

Cold flesh had will never again feel

The soft warmth of her touch again

The tender taste of her kiss once more



Unfeeling heart that no longer beats

Long ago ravished by passing time

Now a victim to roam dark nights

Feeding now, but no longer on love



Graveyard shadows now become my home

With the rotting dead my only friends

Wishing to die and escape this damned curse

Eternal life gives me endless pain



No longer can I embrace the sun light

Feel that warm glow on my skin

To feel that heat, feel that joy

Alas, it will not come my way again
