What Does It Mean to Be Undead?

What Does It Mean to Be Undead?

What does it mean to be undead?
Do the lungs breathe,
does the heart beat?
Are we human if we never sleep,
waking corpses roaming the earth
like lonely, hungry wolves.
We feed on your life forces,
gaining sustenance
from the veins we suck dry.
What does it mean to be undead?
Do the eyes see,
do the ears hear?
Do we wander like zombies,
aimless and satanic?
Are we alive?
Are we alive?
Or are we something different,
living and breathing and dying and rotting?
What does it mean to be undead?
