Array ( [sid] => 8362 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Dark Possession [time] => 2002-12-10 21:00:00 [hometext] => Yes, yes i know it does not rhyme, and has no rhythm. [bodytext] => It was many moons ago I saw you now,
I still remember it with the strangest clarity
You were a sight of ethereal beauty, unearthly.
A sight for my sore eyes.
And often have I wondered why you despised me so,
But you loved me as well as hated me.
All you wanted was someone to possess:
A soul to steal.
And I deprived you of your spider meal.

As your unearthliness stayed with me,
Your spider sting poisoned slowly,
Filling my tormented head, with dreams of you,
And your ethereal beauty.
Why did you leave me, alone with
The cold, unfriendly moon?
I demand that you possess me,
I take it back now: please devour me
Take me body and soul.

And I can take your hatred as it is even,
- No longer one sided now.
Swallow me whole,
I want to swim in the void of you un-sated darkness
Take me piece by howling piece,
Drown me in your depths,
Let your undercurrents pull my feet from solid ground.
- As I will be your last ever meal.

That was really good. I like poems that don't go by any strict rules of rhyme and rhythm. Basically, thats the same way I write. Nice piece.
