My First Sunrise

by Alyssa Sandoval - Not entered

I'll never forget that important day,
Its very special to me in every way.
At that time I was a vampire,
And the suns rays could set me afire.
I was restricted to be in the dark,
Because I had the vampires mark.
I was so alone and longed for someone,
And thats when I met my one true love.
He was so handsome and so kind,
And I knew a companion like this is hard to find.
We were both consumed with lust,
And our relationship developed around love and trust.
But I knew it could never be complete,
Unless my vampirism I could defeat.
Over and over I would wonder,
"How can you convert a vampire?"
Then I realized what had to be done,
I had to replace my own blood until it was gone.
My love volunteered and refused to have it any other way,
And thus began that memoriable day.
As his blood began to flow into my viens,
I felt a warmness come over me and alittle pain.
I felt myself becoming my own master,
Then I felt dizzy and my heart began to beat faster.
I turned to my love and he was smiling at me,
"Come over here darling, theres something you have to see."
Slowly I walked over to him and took his hand,
He pointed out the window to the dark land.
"Look outside, the sun is about to rise."
This would be my first time seeing it with my own eyes.
Terror struck in me and I wanted to run,
But I remained still and faced the sun.
The whole land began to lighten up as I watched,
And the sun quickly moved upwards as if into the sky it was launched.
I stared at amazement at the array of colors I could see,
And for the first time in my life I realy felt free.
