His is the kiss of a timorous lover. Feel his inhuman lips on the throat, the heat of it. The bite, when it comes, is cold. Begin to sink as the blood flows into his mouth; it is almost soothing. No pain. No pain at all. His teeth grind into the muscles; ecstasy and torment. Life, the very being, is flowing out. Unholy nourishment. Holy nourishment. Drained slowly.

Wafting around here
Feel it from your Soul
You will see Magic over here

Did I just now hear a beautiful symphony over here ?
Or is it just your soothing words murmuring in my ear?

Or is it your soft head nestling that I feel so tender?

Wafting around here
Feel it from your Soul

Did I just now hear the nightingale sing around here?
Or is it the breeze whispering softly to the trees near?

Feel it from your Soul
You will see Magic over here.. — Avijeet Das

There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unkown, secret place. The old people came literally to love the soil, and they sat or reclined on the ground with a feeling of being close to a mothering power.

He can see more clearly into the mysteries of life and come closer in kinship to other lives about him. — Luther Standing Bear

I knew this idea was not a true thing, but still I felt good that the trees were here. — Ned Hayes
