Dual Death

by Erika   Apr 15, 2005


Take it I say
Don’t waste your time with me
Just do it and get it over

He glares at me with his yellow eyes
In question at my persistence and
And will to die

Aren’t you scared? He comes close
So close that his breath teases my neck
No I reply

He jumps back at my answer
Why? He asks
“My life is such a disappointment”

He then moves close to whisper
“Your life is a disappointment?”
“My life is never ending.”

A terror streams across my face
I feel dead yet alive
But my fear is not of death

“I’ll give you what you wish.”
But you must also do as I wish
You must place this dagger in my hart

He hands me a blade
Its handle beautifully crafted
With its curs on it’s blade

I take it in my hands
He grabs me close
I look to his eyes and see his soul

As we penetrate each others skin
I yell not in pain but relief
And so dose he

I feel myself go cold and my mind go blank
He stops and looks at me
“Are you sure”

“Yes” I scream as I pierce his hart
He lets out a yell and bites my neck
Tangled in a knot we smile at our end

Together we cry
Wondering why ….
Why had we not met before

    Great poem...I liked the general idea. What some people don't seem to get is that a poem doesn't have to rhyme, but poetry is not exempt from proper grammar and spelling. Fix those and you'll have a near perfect poem. I just had to give you 4/5 on this one because grammar and spelling are two of my pet peeves...sorry. Constructive criticism is a good thing right? Feel free to check some of mine out too. Keep up the good work:-)
