Regret

Writer's picture: Tiffany HoffmanTiffany Hoffman

It's another poem, friends. People still like vampires, right?





I have a secret buried deep within a jeweled cup

A secret deep and dark enough for gargoyles to sweetly sup.


A fell secret hidden in my heart beneath a burning flame

A secret that though ages pass wise men refuse to name.


For on a moon rise long ago a dark stranger I did meet

And in his eyes I saw forever and worshiped at his feet.


So now my beauty unlike the moon neither waxes nor wanes

And all the beauty that I seek I find in the world’s pains.


Those who know of my secret heart have met a bitterest end,

Though they worshipped at my feet and tasted life’s blood bittersweet


Yet none of them saw forever, for my heart could not admit

A companion as dear as my first fall from grace into this darkling pit.
