Darkness rests on chests

Light pressure to heavy heaves

A succubus crushes the flames

Last light from your dreams.

Mine wasn't very poetic. I was too busy thinking "cool".

Very interesting topic and I loved your haiku. Far more dignified than mine.

If there was one of these weird vampires that I’d want to be, I think it would be this one. Imagine just becoming flame 🔥

Awesome!! I love the OCD aspect to vampires like this. Also the narrative voice is great, really gives it some flavor.
