Screaming whispers please! =)

Hear ya go;

The cold stares. The cold glares.
Your eyes taunt, they haunt.
Fear grows, as the heart froze.
Qualm enters thought - it is naught.
You say you will save, but you're a knave.
Your touch makes me chill, you intent is to kill.
....
And all of a sudden, I become spry -
Free from your dark demon eye...

Hellon, sorry, but because it is now an "old" poem, so to speak, I cannot allow it. It's just because I like to read new poems. If I wanted to read an old one, i could just look it up. I want to give a reason to write something new... :)

Nightmares, please =]

And thanks for letting me advance.

"See the Creature", please.

Thank you for letting me move on to round 2. :]

May I have 'Living For The Beast' please? Thank you :)
P.S.
Thanks for selecting me for round 2

EDIT:
Can I have 'Wound' instead? I'm sorry

Werewolf please

Werewolf

The moon begins to rise, over a cold and dark town,
a creature roams wild, while the moonlight shines down.

He is a man by day, as normal as any man could be,
but when the moon shines, everyone can then see.

What kind of monster he truely is, no one can explain,
so they all stay in fear, as he transforms his eternal pain.

Feeding on the innocence, his heart is made of stone,
trapped in this horrible worfd, forever trapped here alone.

Never to share this curse, as it eats away his humanity,
trapped in his mind at night, near to the break of insanity.

But there is still hope, maybe one day it will finally end,
then he can be free once more, never to face this again.

He doesnt want to hurt anyone, but he cant stop the moon,
and he prays he will die, maybe that end will come soon.

But it doesn't, and again and again more innocence die,
by this horrid monster, with hate filled in his dark eyes.

But a werewolf, this is what his heart will forever be,
trapped in a human, consumed for the rest of eternity.

this is a rough draft, i might change it, i might not.

This is not my best.

Dead girl on earth

Tears streaming down her face
As she finishes off her little note
She knows she will not be missed

She puts the note in an envelope
And gets the gun out of the draw
Where she has been hiding it

One shot and it will all be over
This is will be the end
Of all her pain and torture

She puts the gun to her temple
And squeezes the triger once
She lays dead on the floor

With blood all around her
All she is now is
A dead girl on earth

Screamin' Whispers (Triquatrain)

Hearing footsteps behind, yet when she turns there's nothing to find
Cruel antagonising wind whipping back her hair
Goosebumps along her arms, no longer remaining calm
Sensing someone's evil piercing glare

Sweat trickling down her face, wanting to be out of this place
Heart now beating frantically in her chest
Running as fast as she can, feet tripping as she ran
Brambles and branches tearing up her dress

Grabbed and thrown hard to the ground, hitting the floor without a sound
Blood streaming down her pale sunken cheeks
Suddenly overcome with pain, feeling like she's going insane
No longer feeling strong but weak

Pinning her arms behind her back, reassurance is what he lacked
As he forced his lips on her's roughly kissing her
Nothing could be heard, not a single word
Nothing but a screaming whisper

See the Creature
by SecludedSerendipity

Yellow fangs, so very grotesque,
This can't be real, must be a burlesque.
This must be a joke, please people start clarifying,
No, it's true, and deeply terrifying.

Pale blue skin, with a hint of red,
Eyes of darkness; a relation to the dead?
A tale so long, ten metres or so,
A beak on its face, similar to a crow.

A gigantic roar erupts from its mouth,
So grumbling, scary, extremely loud.
Where did it come from? Did it just have its birth?
What's making it wreak such havoc on Earth?

Nobody moves when its eyes meet yours;
They must obey it, of that they are sure.
No one knows how it works, no one knows what to do,
Has it been around for ages? Is it very new?

All that anybody has to offer to us,
Something of which is a must:
If you see this creature coming your way -
Get down on your knees and start to pray!

Standing at the edge of the earth she screams,
Stumbling toward the end of her broken down dreams,
And her hollow voice echoes through her head,
With the tears in her eyes painted a blood red.

There's gashes and bruises all along her heart,
And the flesh around her soul is torn apart,
Her veins are rusting away, wearing thin;
And the last she heard, running is the new sin.

There's a bullet hole right between her broken eyes,
As she raises her rotting arms up to the sky;
"Forgive me Lord for I have sinned again today,"
She whispers under her breath as she begins to pray -

And she stares to the nightmare that she has become,
Serenading herself with the lullabies she starts to hum,
Falling to her knees - she traces over the bullet scar,
Setting all of her hopes onto one decaying star.

Okay, i lied. Can i have 'Living for the Beast'? Im sorry. I wont change my mind again lol i swear

Okay, sorry lol. I'm done haha

Living For The Beast

All that I'm living for
All I am is death and more
Killing me at my core is the beast within

The beast within is what controls me
Eating at my fears and laughing
Like a clown in black
Beating on my back
Unlock my tears and unleash the scare
Then you'll meet my one true nightmare

Drag me down to hell
So my soul can rest again

Living for the beast in me
Is harder than it may seem
Not safe even in a dream - he'll always be behind me

As the night begins to fall
He whispers, 'I will kill your all'
There is no escape
From his vicious reign
He grins at me from in my dreams
His choice lullaby are my screams

Licking his lips hungrily
At the sight of my meltdown

As the heavens begin to cry
Tears fall from my eye
Why won't he let me die? - This secret's killing me

Okay, well seeing as everyone is done, I will close this on Friday 22 June. Thanks to everyone for participating...
