Helpless (Free verse) by _iamtwilight_
The dawn is slowly breaking through
The sun must trade places with the moon.
We creatures of the night must quickly depart
Fot the hateful light and bursts of bright
Will take our wings away from flight.
As we cower, our minds are still swirling with power
Yet we understand sunlight is our poison,
Bitter and sour.
Our bodies will be destroyed,
Our soft flesh devoured.
We have to move quickly
Back into dark hours.
Our windows painted black
Doors locked & latched,
We hide from the day
And the comfort it lacks.
We duck into our lair
And in it we crouch,
So as not to be seen by the suns evil glare.
We reminisce of our night,
Of our dangerous fights
And wondrous sights.
Of the beauty we beheld
Looking into eyes so full of fright
'Till we all, one by one,
Lay our heads down to rest.
For the dusk will soon come,
And our sharp fangs we shall bless.
The thick red blood of a mortal
Will transfer our energy to a powerful portal
Where we are invincible,
Where we cannot be touched
Until, once again, the sun will rise
And we will once again run
Away from Gods eyes.

This thing almost takes off, but then it's gets hobbled by so many "the"s and "our"s and "we"s -- let it go free my blue-eyed tattooed lass -
Pour acid apon it and see the weak words run away; the stong will survive.
let
it
free.
