The Undead Warrior
I am powerful
I am immortal
I am dead
I am alive
I am neither
I am both
I dine on unsuspecting hosts
Hopelessly screaming, as my fangs sink deeper and deeper, staining my teeth
Oh! That delectable taste, that steely crimson that I lick from my lips
Soon you sink to the floor
Forever my slave
I dream
I dream of my mortal years
I dream of my family
I dream of the warmth of my wife's soft skin
The laughter of my children
The screams as I watched them die, forever tainting my mind
I am cursed with these thoughts
Forever locked in my mind
Now I lay in my deathbed, stake through heart
Forever knowing that,
I am a Vampire
An Undead Warrior

very nice. it fits together and in overall is a good poem. but i have to mention that i'm not really the type to deeply analize peoples work, i prefur to enjoy the work for what is writen but i can't help but ask, is there any deeper meaning behind this poem that you intended to express? i'm sorry if thats abit straight forward, and i understand if you don't wish to answer.
-
No thats a very reasonable question, but kind of Its to say that even monsters, or those that are perceived as monsters have feeling and didnt get their beginnings as 'monsters.'
-
i likes it <3 *claps lightly but childishly tew self*
-
nicely answered. and once again i really liked your poem and look forward to seeing more.

The Forest of the Unwanted
In this forest I walk
There is much to see
Eyes within shadows
Trees great with horror
Dark damp green leaves
Vines twist and twirl
Branches mangled and marled
Trunks beaten and bleeding
Black putrid swamps lay at my feet
The sights I see are depressing
Filled with the unwanted and unloved
But what I see also thrives
Alive with the plants and creatures abandoned by society
But together They live happily, creating
The Forest of the Unwanted
I dont really like this one, it was from a prompt in my freshman year.

The Wish
Here I lay
Waiting in despair
Contemplating thoughts of horror & demise
With no control, I burst into a mad laughter
I am amused
All is lost
Yet all is gained
I cannot arise from this gloom
I am crushed into an unrecognisable paste
Can you see me?
Can you see the real me, sitting here bursting from pain
A slit of the wrist
A tight noose in the doorway
A cold barrel pressed firmly to the temple
The person who is me, is no longer here
Like the glorious phoenix
I have exploded into a dismal dust
Only ash to colour my soul
A black shrivelled heart lying in a pool of nothingness
My body near, unmoving
Black seeps from my lips
And falls from my eyes
Was it worth it?
Yes.
No longer the pain
No longer the constant screams
The tears that could extinguish even the greatest of fires
No more day-in-day-out faces
Finally dark, peaceful Alone
Was it worth it?
No.
A life
Lonesome, but still a life
Regret, a last love
Risking my soul, I search
Help...
Will you?
No, you won't
You refuse
So alone I shall live
Until I can find my place...
Why must I wear this mask?
Concealing my true emotion
Can I not just be left alone, without wearing it?
Why is it so hard to let go?
Why must this be my only true emotion?
I wish I could feel true pure
Maybe even happiness
But such a large wish for such a wasted soul to ask for
So so forever I shall search for something to help me live in harmony
Please
With no god
And only one love, yet so unrealistic
I sit here crying a letter of resignation from this mortal realm
Oyasuminasai
And farewell to these streaming words...
This was really just an internal monologue...

i'll make sure to put a copy of your poem with your name on it in the test paper so you get the credit. and if i could i would use one of my own bits of work for another related text but it'd take to long to write...unless i just put up the site adress and send them here.....sorry, i was just thinking outloud for a second there. heres the link to some of my workif your interested.
