Chapter 2 : Life and death

I used to be the nice guy, we’ll I guess I still am given the fact, that I’ve only feed on humans once. But I’ll come back to that later, I am the type of guy that really puts an effort into everything I do, and surprisingly it has taken me nowhere, I used to think I could change the world with one great idea at the time, I had millions of things going at once, I was an optimistic, but if there is something life has taught me is that being optimistic is OK, but being a realistic, is even better.

You really have to know that you can achieve and what you can’t. But is even more important to know what you really want to achieve, instead of achieving millions of unworthy things, which really don’t make you a better person, lover, friend, or what have you.

Life is nothing more that what you make of it, and this is a dead man speaking so please pay attention to every word. So in case you’re wondering … yes I am dead…yes I am a vampire. Also crosses, holy water and sunlight do nothing to me.

I lived 23 years and I plan to live some more as a dead man walking, it is strange to think that something as inert as me, can walk this earth with so much ease, and somewhat careless existence, but what bothers me is the constant moving from place to place, I wouldn’t want people to star suspecting about me, and even though there are many vampires, they are like humans in the likes that each and everyone of them is so different from others, I really despise my kind, no wonder where called the damned.

Just before I died I had learn many languages, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Italian and Latin. I never thought before of how use full all these languages have been for me. From those I learned some German, Portuguese and Chinese. I’ve traveled all around the world but my home is always where she is…where I left her…where she was.

It is so sad to think of the past that meant something to me, more likely the past that meant all to me. For I’ve died once in death too. It was in that time that I had inspiration, that I created most of my greatest songs, drawings, poems, thoughts, etc.

So how does a vampire earn money to exist, we’ll that is easy, I draw portraits of people in each of the cities I visit, or I can take any part time job that the city has to offer, I used to perform with live audiences like I did when I was alive in school..
It’s funny how my years at school seem so far now, like a very distant memory that almost has fade away, but still remains. I wonder how many memories I’ve lost in time with out really noticing.

I’ve lived 64 years as a vampire, but the circumstances of my life or death, depends on how you see it haven’t been favorable, but I’ll get to that later. I wasn’t bitten by a vampire, that not how I came to be who I am, I came to be as simply as a genetic code evolves and the stronger personality of a Multiple Personality Disorder Manifest itself. It took around 4 years for me to become a vampire, or at least that the estimate I came with, because I didn’t even notice when it all happened.

I am a vampire and I crave for blood. But like I’d said before I am a nice guy, so no… I don’t kill people. Or perhaps that´s what I want you to believe.
i know it´s kinda sloppy and weird at parts , that how i wanted it to be.
