On an eerie night one day,
Stood a vampire looking for his next slay.
Quiet and still as the night,
The energy vampire thirsts for a soul as bright as light.
It looked at every soul passing through,
Till it came across two souls with the brightest hue.
Working hard all day, the two of them met along the way,
Little were they aware of the vampire that awaits to suck their bright ray.
The vampire sucked the energy right out of them,
It left them battling for their sanity to fight dread.
Toying with their emotions, health and sanity,
The vampire smiled after the hunt, boosting its vanity.
Out of fear, the two souls didn’t run and fought for their lives as they bled,
Lying on the ground as they tried to stitch the tapestry of their souls instead.
The powerful and fearless of them, stood up to make the other smile again,
With all its strength, it pulled the other up, and they both saw the sunshine again.
