A drop of blood taste like wine today...

Imaginary lover I left you because this ravenous love made me blind I endeavored to move on but I can’t get hold of my own mind The so called felicity is the unique lost piece I cannot find So I often think of us, and lament for the promising future we denied I miss that cozy warmth and yearn for your presence by my side Since winter has frozen our bed, nest where we used to entwine I still crave for your charming voice, holy melody I plan to enshrine Though your body is no longer here, the pictures are left to remind me That I caught fire with desire when your flaming skin touched mine That your venomous tongue washed me clean of all my crimes That desire had no boundaries, while pain and pleasure were undefined I’m aware of my doom, I’ll never meet again one of your kind I’m cursed for I let it slip through my fingers The companion and soul mate of yesterdays I can’t get rid of the addictive fragrance that still lingers Vestiges and unsettling

Locked up

Cage of tears Here I am in prison Avoided by the life Abandoned by no reason Aborted by sunlight I sense the fleeting seasons My eyes can never shine Plagued by indecisions Can’t have you by my side Our story was so beautiful Everyday a new sacrifice A pain so unbelievable Another ruined paradise We promised to keep dealing With the troubles we would find But misfortunes often deceiving Have torn our world apart A hell of endless grieving Have changed our hearts The lies kept us from healing Old wounds in sorry plight We can’t go on this way I heard it before you say I had enough dismay All our dreams have gone astray I’ll miss that unique blinding smile Bathing in the coldness of your absence I’ll resent your words for awhile I’ll dive in a pitiless well of disgrace Rewinding all those times I tried to make amends Though the thoughts of suicide Were choked by sighs of reticence I’ll still love you for

VAMPS!

Well, it's not one of the best movies I've seen regarding vampires, but I do love the soundtrack and the design of the whole thing. The story is not so bad, just simple. There's a guy who come between the girls and that's so not cool, yet the German nightlife looks stunning!!

I can't wait to see this one!!

I love Farrel, and I adore vampires!! Is there any better combination?

One poem by me, depressing, it's true...What did you expect?

Why father can’t save me Forgive father for I have sinned Forgive me for not caring about how things will work here as soon as I’m gone. Forgive me for turning to solutions that can never be undone I know I never mentioned about feelings till this point But my heart has been trampled thousand times and repeatedly replaced by a tombstone It seems a bit late to give up, but this time around I can feel it in my bones Since all affections and passions have escaped to an unknown zone There’s nothing else left and no salvation intends to come Forgive me for taking measures which are definitive, unpredictable and harsh Forgive me for seeing life as an unavoidable plane crash. Forgive me for chasing my own humble tragedies Forgive me for forsaking my own blood and the strongest memories Forgive me for not playing the impeccable role model Forgive me for not expecting things to go well I never meant to let you down or allow this vicious cancer to dispel Disg

Killing time translating Cecília Meireles' poetry

Serenata Serenade Permita que eu feche os meus olhos, Allow me to close my eyes pois é muito longe e tão tarde! For it’s too late and too far Pensei que era apenas demora, I thought it was only lateness, e cantando pus-me a esperar-te. and singing I decided to wait for you Permite que agora emudeça: Allow me to become mute now: que me conforme em ser sozinha. That I comply with loneliness Há uma doce luz no silencio, There’s a sweet light within the silence e a dor é de origem divina. And the pain descends from the divine Permite que eu volte o meu rosto Let me turn my gaze para um céu maior que este mundo, To a sky bigger than this world, e aprenda a ser dócil no sonho And learn to be docile within the dream como as estrelas no seu rumo. As the stars in your route. piece by Cecília Meireles translation by Vanessa de Assis Cântico VI Canticle VI Tu tens um medo: You have one single fear: Acabar. To perish. Não vês que acaba todo o dia. You do not

Conflagration, by me, of course (V.C.D.A.)

LET THE OLD DREAM DIE When we were young the sky was often closer My hands could reach all the stars and my mind was a rover Sunshine kept always trying, but the night was my sole lover Life had no limits, under the sparkling dark I had a cover Then we grew old enough to find out the clouds just got colder The thunder is everlasting while fortune threatens to be over Joy was chased away and my humble hope sunk lower I aimed to the top, battled to become the best whilst sober I had the opportunities, though my decisions seemed to hover I crossed the way of perdition to expire my religion I learned to let go of addiction even to undress my soul of ammunition The world couldn’t help turning into a mere absurd fiction Embittered, I stumbled upon my fate’s eviction Sorrowed, I embraced the irony of contradictions Distressed, existence became the source of my greatest affliction Charmed by emptiness I erased all convictions Quiet and balanced I disco

I can't believe I missed this one: Hellsing

This one is stylish, dark and weird. Gotta love both manga and anime.

Review: Vampires in Hollywood...again

Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant (2009) I like this movie, even though it's not that vampire-like. I appreciate Darren, he's cute and loyal. I haven't read the book which based the adaptation, but I liked the film just as it is. Daybreakers (2009) I'm a fan of Ethan Hawk, so I'm not gonna say the film was 100% boring, so I'd give it a 6 for the cast performance and concept of the script. 30 Days of Night(2007) & 30 Days of Night : Dark Days (2010) The vampires are scary, and that's quite exciting. The first film is a tremendous horror movie, the second one is not so marvelous, but I guess one complete the other somehow. Thumbs up for these ones, luv their pointed teeth. Vampires suck (2010) Some ridiculous scenes, the parodies were ok, but still not one of the best.

Japanese Filmakers are insane - Schoolgirls turned into gothic fiction icons

Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl (2009) Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl (2009)I'm not gonna say much about this film...All u have to know is that it's gory, absurd, hilarious and 100% unusual, if you're not used to japanese horror flicks.

Abby is not a vampire, she's a fucking creature out of Romero's film

Swedish adaptation of on the bestselling Swedish novel by Ajvide Lindqvist - - Lat den Ratte Komma In (2008) Let Me In - US remake - 2010 (see at ur own risk) Hammer films has a history... But let me put this clear, the main characters aren't just that good. On the vampire child...Abby, she's not androgynous, nor innocent like Eli. But What should I expect from an American version?>_< WHy does she have to transform into a monster? American filmakers should drop the CGI once in a while...WHat about Oskar? Well, Owen was ok, but still, the Swedish boy left a strong impression on me. I had to leave my thoughts about it, cause people are syaing it's magnificent and 'original'...Well, it's not and the girl, she will always remind me of Nicholas Cage's daughter in Kickass..haha, she just doesn't convince as a vampire, at least that's my opinion. Anyways, check it out Let me in (2010), just after seeing the original one! By the way, I'm not comp

Vampire fever continues...Incessant, undead

It's been centuries I try not to regard the topic, but yes...I"m on research about vamps again ...I gotta do it, it's my life mission!!XD After the sickening Twilight , the tasteless Vampire Diaries and the Awefuckingsome TruBlood, I'm afraid there are more bites to come. On earlier posts I commented about a BBC series Being Human quite ingenious soup. I just fell in love with it and I'm looking forward to the 3rd season. Lately I heard of a US remake of a Being human ...Geez, I downloaded the first two chapters but haven't watched yet, I'm not sure if I can...The British version really rules and I'm not certain if this version will be worth watching, coz American turn everything cheap! Remember what they did to Saya (BLOOD:LAST VAMPIRE), or Eli (Låt den rätte komma in)? I'll see what they did to this trio...
