to be loved by death is to be death itself. some would say you become death, but you already are, in the way a snake eats its own tail.
all vampires are made out of selfish desire. is it selfish to love? is it selfish to love when you know you are death? you are only death because somebody loved you. and so you will love, and so will death. a snake eating its own tail...
#i think its interesting that those who desire death the most are death.#its ironic that those whom death love most will never experience it#i don't know if i fully communicated this in the post but the part about already *being* death#you have to be a very particular kind of person to capture the attention of a vampire#you were damned long before you were ever bitten#anyway. i havent read the books#i was just thinking about this quote and ran with my own thoughts#i know this isn't necessarily what it means but hey. this is what it means to me#iwtv#interview with the vampire#amc iwtv#poem#poetry#do you know what it means to be loved by death?#book quote#show quote#analysis#but not really lol#vampires#this started iwtv-specific but honestly i think this post works for vampires as a broad theme#mandy writes#mandy speaks#ouroboros
