Eternal Desire
R Bennett Okerstrom
Crimson stream to draw me near
Shallow breaths to show your fear
Trembles echo down your spine
The gaze so strong you know is mine.
Mezmorized by ancient stare
Existing only through nightmare?
You can run but cannot hide
For you were meant to be my bride.
I've followed you for centuries
You will be mine despite your pleas
No mortal man has stopped me yet
For you I choose as my soubrette.
Think of it as not undead
And welcome me your arms outspread
Give in to what you call desire
For now you have become vampyre.

DISCLAIMER: STORYMANIA DOES NOT PROVIDE AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWS. ALL REVIEWS ARE PROVIDED BY NON-ASSOCIATED VISITORS, REGARDLESS OF THE WAY THEY CALL THEMSELVES.
"I took your advice and read your poetry. Wow! i love the imagery, so powerful. Brilliant" -- Elizabeth, Australia.
"Wow! I have reached as far as Australia now! Thanks for the positve review!" -- R. Bennett.
"Fond of the undead as well. Why doesn't that surprise me on the heels of your Unbridled Fury series? I think Elizabeth hit the nail on the head." -- Ivan.
"Ah Ivan. I think of it more as the eternal living rather than the undead. The sheer concept of immortality is intriguing in itself. The whole stake to the heart thing kind of ruins it though." -- R. Bennett.
"Taste the blood!!" -- Torment.
"Taste the blood? Sure." -- R. Bennett.
"I am truly impressed! :) " -- Julie, Trenton.
"Thanks! See ya at the next BBQ at my house!" -- R. Bennett.
"I like. Personally, I think it might be a tad stronger if the last line were a bit more subtle. The vivid imagery already conveys your true nature. ;-)" -- Mistina, New York.
"And your suggestion for the last line is..... " -- R. Bennett.
"I like it just the way it is! Very hypnotic. " -- JM.
"I don't feel worthy to actually make a concrete suggestion. Just an initial impression. If you're really interested, I'll think about it. However, you are the poet--not I." -- Mistina, NY.
"Ok. I won't press you for it. Nice to finally see "NY" after your name!" -- R. Bennett.
"amazing its extremely amazing. its almost like this subject means more to you then it seems" -- Jessie Finn.
"Wicked !!!!! Loved it ... will definitly read all of your offerings ... your imagery is hypnotic. Hope you will be able to get into the next two chapters from my Amarantos ... will be awaiting your critique ... " -- Judith, Tampa, FL, USA.
"I have read Amarantos and recommend it to everyone. " -- R. Bennett.
"Thanks, R. Bennett!!!!!" -- Judith.
"The beat had me hooked...it's captivating and steamy, and very clever. It grabs you in a way you're almost embarrassed to admit...a romantic trance..." -- Mia Angello, WI.
"Exactly Mia. Exactly how a vampire would lure you in. Once you are caught in his hypnotic stare you cannot resist him. " -- R. Bennett Okerstrom.
"I, for one, would not want to resist ...... just think of it, immortality; an eternity to spend together ..." -- Judith.
"What if you don't like the person who made you immortal? Then you might not want to spend eternity with them. Not every vampyre can be as attractive and caring as they are in your stories Judith." -- R. Bennett.
"True, R Bennett, but not all vampires in my stories are caring ... look at Santiago in Bite; by the way, you need to finish that story !!!! And come to think of it, eternity IS a very long time .... " -- Judith .
"I like Santiago! He is a bit extreme, but cool nonetheless." -- R. Bennett.
"Thanks, R Bennett, now finish that story !!!!!!" -- Judith.
"So glad vampires exist in stories only..very imaginative, I am intrigued and fascinated by your writing...thanx again for the reading pleasure." -- mandi, va.
"No, thank YOU for reading it. It wouldn't be worth posting if people didn't enjoy reading it." -- R. Bennett.
"The rhythm is captivating, and the tone is quite sexy! Fun." -- Mia Angello, WI.
"I agree. This has a sexual air about it even if it describes the undead." -- The Reviewer.
"crimson tide; float away on a sea of bitter sweet extascy...i love vampyres to...this poem reminds me of the movie dracula 2000 - i like it!" -- kat, Australia.
"Thanks Kat. I'm glad you liked it!!" -- R. Bennett.
"I like the pace & flow...and want to be her." -- Royal D.
"You want to be immortal? Don't we all?" -- R. Bennett.
"I admit, immortality has an appeal to me. I like the intent here. He has chosen her and is focused on her...the chase for centuries seems to be coming to an end." -- Royal D.
