Distinctly Tainted

I stand in the snow

The moonlight shining down

Upon my pale face

My hand goes to my heart

And my other turns into a fist

Tears run down my face

But I'm not supposed to cry

My hair blows gently in the wind

Chill not bothering my skin

I close my eyes

And I open them after a long second

Am I really that different?

I look up at the sky

A star shoots across it

In the darkness

More tears flow down my cheeks

And I do nothing to stop them

Am I really a monster?

I force my eyes closed

At the thought

But the tears keep coming

I clutch my heart

Hearing each beat

As if it was on full volume

I clench my fist tighter

And blood drips

To the snow

And times seems to stop

I look down at my hand

And the mark fades

Tears come more freely

I really am a monster

I fall to my knees

And clench both my hands

And the wind whips at my hair

And pulls my tears away

Telling me not to cry

More blood dyes the snow red

As it creates a pool of blood

In the white snow

But no matter how hard I try

The marks just heal

My fangs protrude from my lips

As I look at the sky

And scream

What am I?!
