The Vampire's Kiss - A Sonnet

By Alex Greene
writing as “Baccata”


The tender touch of lips burns like a light

And like a rising mist, this deep'ning kiss

Blots out all thought save sensual delight.

I've tasted love - but no love burned like this.


I feel your breath escape - a shivered hiss

Mixed with my breath. Your body shudders. Tight

As Titan's grip your arms embrace me - This

Is our time. We share our love this night.


Long have we waited for this fated night.

A rendezvous: a tryst we dared not miss.

Anticipation, lust, desire and fright

Add passion's fevered fervour to our bliss.


Then in the morning, I shall steal away;

Though soon I shall return, at end of day.
