A beautiful darkness...
I don't know if you meant this Nikki but I get the imagery of a soulless vampire,
but at the same time it's a deeper meaning of life and its more somber moments.
Maybe this is where the concept of "vampires" came from
as with anything from the past, it was a combination of
abstract ideas, tradition and local history & culture.
An entity that draws out your soul, your heart, your blood
in the blackest of night with illusionary romance but no compassion.
This represents the drain you feel by betrayals of life & people.
Your memories of warmth & promise, only to now have faded,
leaving your heart, your soul empty.
And like in the stories of these creatures, they are defeated by the light.
So meaning, you have to remember to hope & love,
in your heart, in your soul.
Feel your blood flowing, the life.
And with this you will defeat the darkness.
This is how I interpreted your compelling poem.
Very deep, excellent imagery
Thank you for sharing, I get a lot out of this.
