(1 of 3) Turning Point

Folder: 
Gothic

I hear the flutter of wings in the night

The sound of hundreds taking their flight

Igniting fear of what I know will come

Tired of running, it's time to succumb



Off in the distance coming this way

Anytime now I'll see their soiree

The night sky going dark in my eye

Life as I know it will soon die



There they are with me all alone

My heart beats fast and I let out a groan

One swoops down, and I lose all control

As it bites my neck and drinks from my soul



My eyes turn black and my skin goes pale

Getting a scent of air that smells slightly stale

Feeling a cold ache at the base of my spine

Then turning so hot, oh it feels so divine



They all turn and fly off towards the moon

I know in my being I will follow them soon

Our thoughts and desires all intertwined

For I am now and forever one of their kind
