Into the Fire

A poem for my favorite vampires.

By Maura BernsteinPublished about 5 hours ago 1 min read

In rooms of gold and deep crimson,

I found you,

your fear, your sadness, your love as well.

Your attention - bright as the sun and hotter than any ring of Hell,

burned me, warmed me,

destroys me.

Your fire fuels me,

she consumes me,

and I let her.

Gladly,

and without fear,

I accept your sentimental inferno,

for an eternity,

and all that lies beyond.

I dreamt of companionship,

and then,

with a flash of silver and measured rage,

you appeared to me.
