[hometext] => * The first part of this poem was inspired by the movie What Dreams May Come and the second part of the poem took on a decidly vampiric, gothic undertone. This is rather creepy... *
[bodytext] => Moaning my death knell Upon this bed of bloodied roses Forgotten tears run down And hang off my cheeks Raising a trembling hand to the window I see half-dead wragged wraiths Cold and corpse-like chanting Around broken, burning crucifixes Wailing their doleful chant You'll never get to say good-bye You'll never get to say good-bye Their white, leprosied hands Rise up and pull me under, Under their ocean of decay Trying to find solace in my tears, But their tongues reach out and caress my cheek Their eyes burning with lusty passion Finding new ways to check the hurt I start to stitch, Stitch up my blood encrusted wounds You'll never get to say good-bye You'll never get to say good-bye Trapped in a gore spattered dungeon Hearing the rapid beat of their Filthy, lice-ridden, stifling wings Bringing a razor to my face And in its dull reflection I see blood dripping from my fangs And onto my numbed, sickly lips Wrapping it in a sort of morbid packaging I hear them coming tormented by their raucous laughter You'll never get to say good-bye You'll never get to say good-bye Refusing their initiation techniques Their heads lurch back in displeasure And they bring another victim before me His pleading (bleeding) eyes boring straight into me As fresh rose patterns taint the walls Tortured mentally and physically, I caterwaul I'm unable to bow before their demands And before my unseeing eyes They chant around a bonfire worshipping themselves You never got to say good-bye You never got to say good-bye [comments] => 3 [counter] => 183 [topic] => 13 [informant] => bobotheclown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
