"Carecer de libros propios es el colmo de la miseria" Benjamin Franklin
For you D.P
You looked at me like your first time, you kissed me as if you had never done before, your lips, warm and fleshy tenderly kissed my cheeks
I closed my eyes and let myself go, my lips met yours again, I lost myself in your kiss.I missed your angelic face, your perfect face, those beautiful blue eyes and that wonderful smile, that girl's face, which made me dream many times and some others cry.
You have told me that you've missed me and that you get tired of waiting for me. Then you locked my mouth with your hands and you didnt let me talk, you said all is right now because now there are no obstacles, only you and me.
You're giving me your life and I have fear because I do not want to hurt you, you're the most wonderful person in my life, my friend, my companion, my soul, my love.
You said that past mistakes are not going to come back, everything has been forgotten
You withdraw your hand from my mouth carefully, you know me well, you dont want me to worry and re-seal my lips with yours while you put your arms around my neck, you continue with your deep, slow and long kiss canceling all my senses.
I can´t restrain myself any longer, you're here now, your return to be mine, my precious child, my angel, my conscience, my dear and precious girl.

I could die for that smile, I'd give my life for you, you're the first thought in the morning and the last at night. you are my breath and my life. You are everything to me and you know it, you've always known it.
Now you come back to me as a hurricane, dragging me into your arms, I fall surrendered at your feet, nothing is more beautiful on earth than you. Thanks for getting back to me, my sweet love ...

"The Black Veil" Código ético de los vampiros. Las 13 reglas.
"The Black Veil" (v. 2.0), also known as the "13 Rules of the Community", was composed by Michelle Belanger of House Kheperu, Father Sebastiaan van Houten of House Sahjaza, and COVICA in 2000 as a voluntary standard of common sense, etiquette and ideals for the Sanguinarium and the greater vampyre/vampire community. This is not a text to instruct someone on how to be a vampire, but rather a code of ethics for those who are and wish to adopt them as their own personal code. It is based on an earlier version written by Father Sebastiaan in 1999 or possibly in 1998 (the copyright states 1999).
This text has received a lot of flack from many individuals as being "RPG'ish", but I personally feel that the ideals and concepts, regardless of their origins or inspirations, do hold merit. I have little doubt that my continuing to archive a copy of this Black Veil has probably caused some people to summarily dismiss my site as being oriented to little more than the Vampyre lifestyle. That's unfortunate because they completely miss the point, and probably have not bothered to examine the rest of the site to find out what its focus is. Sanguinarius.org is not the Sanguinarium. The text has become, shall we say, unfashionable due to its association with the Sanguinarium. Yes, the original version was written pretty much exclusively for members of the Sanguinarium, but Michelle Belanger, Sebastiaan and others realized that it could reach beyond that and rewrote it in its entirety to produce the version you see below. It was rewritten upon realizing that it could be something bigger and more enduring than just a code of ethics for a smallish group of Vampyre lifestylers.
If it is not to your liking, that's perfectly fine. You do not have to accept it. There are alternatives which have been written which have no roots in the "lifestyle" aspect of things; these are written by, or are collaborative efforts of, real vampires in the vampire community to produce a code of ethics created and especially tailored just for the needs of real vampires, and without the controversy of the Black Veil and the Sanguinarium. Some of these are works-in-progress. I hope to have the chance to include them on my site at some point. As always, feel free to either accept them or reject them. That's up to you.
Sanguinarius and Sanguinarius.org support and endorse this version of the Black Veil.
Although (rather interestingly) copyrighted "1997-2001" by Father Sebastiaan and Michelle Belanger, the Black Veil is an open licensed text available for reproduction on related websites or in print for organizations and individuals who wish to promote it's concepts and ideals. All that is asked is that the Black Veil not be changed, amended or modified in ANY way and include the text and links detailed between the asterisks (*).

1. DISCRETION
This lifestyle is private and sacred. Respect it as such. Do not make a sideshow of yourself. We do not have to prove ourselves to anyone. Appearing on public TV to tell the world that you drink blood is useless attention-getting. It gets a negative reaction for the whole community. Our place is in the shadows; our greatest protection from small-minded humanity is the fact that they do not believe we exist. Someday they may be ready for us to reveal ourselves to them, but that time is not now.Do not hide from your nature, but never show it off to those who won't understand.
2. DIVERSITY
Our paths are many, even though the journey we are on is essentially the same. No single one of us has all the answers to who and what we are. Respect everyone's personal views and practices. We cannot let petty differences of ideology prevent us from maintaining a unified community; there are enough who would attack us from the outside.Our diversity is our strength. Let our differences in viewpoint enrich us but never divide us amongst ourselves.
3. SAFETY
Use sense when indulging your nature. Do not flaunt what you are in public places. Feed in private and make certain your donors will be discrete about what happens between you. Donors who create rumors and gossip about us are more harm than they're worth. If you engage in blood-letting, put safety and caution above all other things. Blood-born diseases are a very real thing, and we cannot risk endangering ourselves or others through irresponsibility. Screen donors carefully, making certain they are in good health both mentally and physically.Never overindulge or get careless. The safety of the entire community rests upon each member's caution.
4. CONTROL
We cannot and should not deny the darkness within. Yet we should not allow it to control us. If our beast or shadow or darkside is given too much sway, it clouds our judgement, making us a danger even to those we love. Never indulge in pointless violence. Never bring willful harm to those who sustain you. Never feed only for the sake of feeding, and never give over to mindless bloodlust.We are not monsters: we are capable of rational thought and self-control. Celebrate the darkness and let it empower you, but never let it enslave your will.
5. LIFESTYLE
Live your life as an example to others in the community. We are privileged to be what we are, but power should be accompanied by responsibility and dignity. Explore and make use of your vampire nature, but keep it in balance with material demands. Remember: we may be vampires, but we are still a part of this world. We must live lives like everyone else here: holding jobs, keeping homes, and getting along with our neighbors.Being what we are is not an excuse to not participate in this reality. Rather, it is an obligation to make it a better place for us to be.
6. FAMILY
We are, all of us, a family, and like all families, various members will not always get along. However, respect the greater community when having your disputes. Do not let your individual problems bring emotional strife to the family as a whole. Settle your differences quietly among one another, only seeking out an elder's aid in mediation when no other solution seems possible. Never bring your private disputes into public places and never draw other family members into the issue by forcing them to take sides.Like any normal family, we should always make an effort to present a stable and unified face to the rest of the world even when things are not perfect between us.
7. HAVENS
Our havens are safeplaces where everyone in the community can come to socialize. There are also often public places where we are likely to encounter people who don't understand our ways. We should respect the patrons of these places as we should also respect the owners of the establishments and always be discrete in our behavior. We should never bring private disputes into a haven. We should never initiate violence in a haven. And we should never do or bring anything illegal into a haven, as this reflects badly upon the community as a whole.The haven is the hub of the whole community, and we should respect it as such, supporting it without business and working to improve its name in the community so that we can always call it home.
8. TERRITORY
The community is extensive and diverse. Every city has a different way of doing things, and a different hierarchy of rule. When entering a new city, you should familiarize yourself with the local community. Seek out the local havens. Learn what households have sway here. Get in touch with key members of the community, learn who is who, and show proper respect where it is due. You should not expect to impose your old way of doing things on this new community. Rather you should adapt to their rules and be glad of their acceptance.Always be on your best behavior when coming to a new city either to visit or to stay. We are all cautious and territorial by nature, and only by making the most positive impression possible will you be accepted and respected in a new community.
9. RESPONSIBILITY
This lifestyle is not for everyone. Take care in who you choose to bring into it. Those who are mentally or emotionally unstable have no place among us. They are dangerous and unreliable and may betray us in the future. Make certain that those you choose to bring in are mature enough for this burden. Teach them control and discretion, and make certain that they respect our ways.You will be responsible for their actions, and their behavior in the community will be reflected back to you.
10. ELDERS
There are certain members of our community who have established themselves as just and responsible leaders. These are the people who helped establish local communities, who organize havens, and who work to coordinate the networking of our culture. While their word does not have to be law, they should nevertheless be respected. They have greater experience than many others, and usually greater wisdom. Seek these elders out to settle your disputes, to give you guidance and instruction, and to help you establish yourself in the local community.Appreciate the elders for all they have given you: if it was not for their dedication, the community would not exist as it does now.
11. DONORS
Without those who offer themselves body and soul to us, we would be nothing. We cannot be other than what we are, but it is the donors who sustain our nature. For this service, they should be respected. Never mistreat your donors, physically or emotionally. They are not to be manipulated or leeched off of for more than what they freely offer. Never take them for granted. Appreciate them for the companionship and acceptance which they offer us, which so many others would refuse. This above all: appreciate the gift of their life. That communion is sacred. Never fail to treat it as such.12. LEADERSHIP
When you choose to take a position of authority in the community, remember that you do not lead for yourself alone. Leadership is a responsibility, not a privilege. A good leader must set an example for everyone through his actions and behavior. His motives should be selfless and pure, and he should put the interests of the whole community before his own.The best leaders are those who serve to better the community and whose person and behavior gives no one -- even those outside of the community -- a reason to criticize them. They must strive to be above reproach.
13. IDEALS
Being a vampire is not just about feeding upon life. That is what we do, but not necessarily what we are. It is our place to represent darkness in a world blinded by light. We are about being different and accepting that difference as something that empowers us and makes us unique. We are about accepting the dark within ourselves and embracing that darkness to make us whole beings. We are about celebrating the thresholds: body and spirit, pleasure and pain, death and life.Our lives should be lived as a message to the world about the beauty of accepting the whole self, of living without guilt and without shame, and celebrating the unique and beautiful essence of every single soul.
"Der Vampir" [The Vampire] (1748) by: Heinrich August Ossenfelder
My dear young maiden clingeth 1
Unbending, fast and firm 2
To all the long-held teaching 3
Of a mother ever true; 4
As in vampires unmortal 5
Folk on the Theyse's portal 6*
Heyduck-like do believe. 7**
But my Christine thou dost dally, 8
And wilt my loving parry 9
Till I myself avenging 10
To a vampire's health a-drinking
Him toast in pale tockay. 12***
And as softly thou art sleeping 13
To thee shall I come creeping 14
And thy life's blood drain away. 15
And so shalt thou be trembling 16
For thus shall I be kissing 17
And death's threshold thou' it be crossing 18
With fear, in my cold arms. 19
And last shall I thee question 20
Compared to such instruction 21
What are a mother's charms?
