  • Damn me Father, for I must sin

    Four centuries of this damned immortality
    Yet, I did not ask to be made
    Why?
    I will never again feel your sun upon my face
    Or the comfort of a grave
    I am not alive and I am not dead
    This is Hell on earth

    How can I possibly explain this eternal youth?
    When I can do nothing, but sit by
    As my loves grow old and wither
    And with each of them, take a fragment of my heart
    and prolong this endless winter
    It is October's perpetual agony
    It is the shadow realm

    Father, please forgive him
    For he knows not what to do

    With every victim I pray for my own death
    And as much as I love the night
    I curse the moons eerie glow
    This blood lust that drags me forever
    The toxic rays of dawn that condemn me to limbo
    I am forced to dwell in gray Autumnal twilight
    I am suspended in dusk

    Father, please forgive him
    For he knows not what to do
    Father, please forgive him
    For he knows not what to do Writer/s: PETER THOMAS STEELE
