Letters (difficult)

  • Romancing the Darker Side

    This contest is going to be rather difficult. Pick up to three letters, and you can only use those as the first letters in every line of your poem. It can be as short or as long as you want, but I recommend 10 lines or more. Any style, and any subject.

    Example: Letters P, S, R
    Pain in my empty heart
    Shallow beating comes
    Rhythimically in my heart
    Preying upon my soul

    Rightfully taking everything
    Stealing all my feeling
    Polluting my spirit
    Reeling emotions astir

    >That was just a short example, and you may use any letter you wish, up to three.

    In yours it goes

    psrpsrpsr...

    does it have to go in the same order all the way through or can you mix up the letters?

    Return Thee, Dark and Ageless Knight
    By: Twisted Heart

    Return my heart to where it thrives
    Among the shadows of the knight
    Deep in the soul that gives me breath
    Relinquish now your hold of death

    Against the hunger, throw thy words
    Deed done to harness all unheard
    Resound the call of midnight's tune
    As angels walk among the ruins.

    Dare thee to take my final stroll
    Running on life's path so cold
    Ash dark and troubled in constant pain
    Dirges to the knight, they claim.

    Remember thee, now hands of time
    A beast that holds my life entwined
    Dear predator, thy breath turns cold
    Return my heart and free my soul.

    Apostle to the hands of fate
    Demurely now you stand and wait
    Recalling hands that stay our minds
    Angry thrusts that pierce through time.

    Dark knight upon your dying steed
    Return my soul and comfort me
    Against the pit of sorrowed tears
    Denounce thy hold, give back my years.

    No, the letters can go in any order you wish. Just try to use each letter at least twice.

    True love

    Placing your hand upon my heart
    Love that is true and never ending
    Some say that love isn't real
    Showing them that they are wrong

    Pieces of my heart that were missing
    Somehow now they have been found
    Put back together just the way it was
    Letting you go, I will never do

    Lost in the thought of you
    Perfect to me in every way
    Started out as lust, the day we met
    Love it has turned into

    Scared of losing you forever
    Leaving me, I don't want you to do
    See, I love you more than you will know
    Please say you love me too
