POETRY CONTEST #6

As i walked in the room
laying on her bed
completely still, no longer alive
i could feel the stillness
right when i walked in
screaming in the soul
this cant be happening
but knowing it was true
having to say goodbye
completely still, no longer alive

now flying from above
she is watching down on me
the only way she could

Succumbing To Darkness

Heart seething in anguish, and unconscionable pain,
Tears thundering down diligently, like savage rain.
Blood-and-guts anger, consuming the lax spirit within,
Vehemently raging, and as unrestrained as mortal sin.
Thoughts as dank and dark, as Satan's heinous soul,
Saturate and overwhelm, claiming ultimate control.
Eyes that irradiate vividly, the realm of the surreal,
Pierce and penetrate the world, with looks that kill.
Emotionally wrought hatred, of apocalyptic proportions,
Fester in a macabre web, woven into putrid contortions.
Insipid misfortune, and unwarranted deaths abound life,
Devoid of prudence, the darkness claims me as it's wife.

One thing to ask,
full of fear.
One thing to say,
I hope you hear.

How can you have feelings for me?
But then not even care.
Am i just a bad memory?
Were you just looking for a soul to tear?

I told you you would be safe with me.
That you should'nt have to fear.
But you drifted into darkness.
You just refused to hear.

If you dont reply to this,
We will never speak again.
But it looks like thats how you want it.

...
yeah this is better.

my poem is titled "My Fault"

You see perfection in all my flaws
Yet you dont see, you are the cause
Trying to hide them is like an addiction
I bear the pain of my own Affliction

You think my natural beauty is hidden,
To bring out the truth, & whats real ...forbidden
For me, its hard, a contradiction,
I bear the pain of my own affliction

You cant see something Ive masked so well
So many dark secrets, which Ill never tell.
Anything but Perfection, is my depiction
I bear the pain of my own affliction

You see perfection in all my flaws
I bear the pain of my own affliction

WHEW i just made 14 lines

Promises of Tomorrow

Promises of Tomorrow are here today
But they must always just fade away
Promises of Tomorrow are always there
But they must always Keep me here...
Promises of Tomorrow were told by you...
Promises of Tomorrow are always true...
Promises of Tomorrow are always you...
Promises of Tomorrow are that "I miss you..."
Promises of Tomorrow are always sweet...
Promises of Tomorrow are full of tight embraces...
Promises of Tomorrow that never end...
Promises of Tomorrow that always bend...
Promises of Tomorrow that always say "I Love You"
Promises of tomorrow is so nice to say...
But tomorrow is not promised so we live for today

IMPORTANT: this does not rhyme or flow. It is a story.

WARNING: mild violence, mature content, (no explicitly)

Ruby Red Jewel of the crescent moon, the sacred gem telling of an ancient boon. For over a thousand years it is protected from the deviant hands of the un-dead spawn. The Ruby Red Jewel is kept safe by the Acolytes of the Holy Hand, across the ocean of burning sand. Every decade a new sacrifice is made, to keep the Ruby Red Jewel's power from fading. Every sacrifice must be of an Acolytes blood, else the sacrifice mean nothing. Although the prophecy does not say the Acolyte must be of a certain faith, whether it be one of the Holy Hand or some other race. So it came to be that the members of the Holy Hand searched for scapegoats. Although holy, the Holy Hand and its leader were filled with malice. Only after one month of searching for a specific target; the Kraken's Rage; did they find an alternate solution. They shifted there attention to an Elven society.

The small group of Acolyte's from the Holy Hand decided that their best course of action would be to infiltrate the Elven society at its heart, the council of elders. The Acolytes approached the Elven society in a friendly manner, and gained entrance to the city. Once within, they spent three months gaining the Elves trust. During those months, the leading Acolyte sent a request for more people by bird back to the Holy Hand. They quickly sent a positive response, and a plan was made. Two months after the reply was sent, during the night, the reinforcements arrived. They quietly crept into the city. They killed all of the Elves that patrolled that were on patrol, and set several Acolytes at every home. When everything was set, all hell let loose. The Acolytes set fire to the Elves homes. The Elves awoke to a horrible nightmare, then after fleeing from the burning inferno consuming their homes, were captured. The Acolytes rounded them up as they could, and killed any resisters.

The Elves were put in chains and solemnly journeyed to the Holy Hand with the Acolytes.
