Devour

They bite
They lick
They know the taste of blood

During the day no one would know
No one would question
They blend in so well

They even go to school
Share a class
Sit next to each other
But nothing is wrong with being friends

When school ends
And the moon rises
They scurry off to their den

Together they talk
For hours on end
Until all life is asleep

That is the time
The time when they become real
And show their true selves to each other

No one would know
How could they presume
One is dating another

But the lie is in play
And at night they say
"I love you"
To one another.

And to think it all started
When one kiss was shared
And then a few more here and there
Til they got wild with hunger

Now he wants to bite her lips
She wants to lick his neck
And together
They want to Devour.
