I wish I could share all my heart with her


Remove all the obstacles that stand in our way


I wish I could show her I care


Show it now, show it then, show it when I can


Say those three famous words


But my demon won’t let me


I open my mouth but the words don’t want to come out


She hits me, disgusted, and I wonder what I said?


I head home, sad; I force myself not to cry


Evil vampires don’t cry but


Hell I haven’t been one for years


The alcohol stings my throat


It’s as hot as the tears that were finally shed


The silence is numbing, all alone for too long


The pain shoots through me but


I don’t feel it anymore


That final look, that gasp of peace and


All that’s left are ashes and a letter


The stake clatters to the floor


Echoing through the empty crypt


The cool winter’s breeze gently opens


Opens the letter solemnly addressed to her


Three little words that were never uttered


That caused so much pain


Revealed for the world, and her, to see


I love you
