The Vampire's Apprentice Jan 26, 2003 By Nancy Price Hit me, fight me, throw me down and bite me. Drink my warm blood. Wrestle me into the mud. Taste my skin, kiss my grin, feel my life within. Tear your wrist, make a fist, hold me down if I resist. Press your wound up to my face. Hold me in your cold embrace. Let your blood spill down my throat. Wrap me up inside your coat. When I go limp, lay me down, Wait for me to come around. sit by me, sing a song, feed me until I get strong. Kiss me, tell me it's ok. Stay with me throughout the day. Keep me where there is no light. Train me in the night. Drink me, treat me as you will. Teach me what it is to kill. Anything, that's what I said, Just when you bite, don't leave me dead.
