Vampyr

Abiding energy

remains in previously troubled space

Alluring darkness

that subdues onlooking windows

-house structures and enervating eyes-

Nostalgia,

An almost fluid psychic energy

branching into me

like veins and capillaries

Through a shaded path

of deleterious expanses of

Growing grief and mental illness-

“But at what cost?”

Being almost drug-like

-addicting-

Bring vivacity back to me

Not by consuming- but

rather taking only the energy

from the surplus

Ever-cycling life line

-blood-

A quickening heartbeat

Vena cava

Atrium

Ventricle

Valves

Repeat and repeat

-deep beat

Releasing me from cycles of reincarnation

-periods of thinking I am-

Rather knowing the energy vibration

I resonate with

An expedition to finding me

-a poem once forgotten-
