			<description><![CDATA[ I have decided to post one of my poems, as a few of mine may be to violent, or self destructive, which is against the board rules. I decided on this one
because it actually won me second place in a talent competition, and is probably the safest to post. Hopefully it won&#39;t be too bad, as I&#39;m not exactly
sure where the line gets drawn. But if anyone would like to read the rest of mine, simply PM me, and I will send you the others. My style is more of a dramatic

What I have been denied

Crying for a heart that was never mine

Biting sharply at such vulnerable neck

Fragile hands and fragile will

Break eagerly under tentative steel

Eyes so cold

<br>
<br>
The Apparitions
<br>
I was alone in the dim, dim darkness,
<br>
The wind blew in with such agressiveness.
<br>
The dark shadows formed, the air turned cold,
<br>
I saw dark figures from the days of old.
<br>
They were as terrible as the daybreak,
<br>
They formed around me, they made the earth quake.
<br>
I cowered in fear as they said their names,
<br>
Their dark forms were surrounded in red... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ This song is inspired by the song Forlorn by Nox Arcana.
<br>
<br>
I wear an ebon dress with a moonbeam,
<br>
Thing may not be what they seem
<br>
My shadow stirs in the dim candlelight,
<br>
When I rise to roam the dead of the night.
<br>
Haunted memories of bygone lovers
<br>
Centuries of dust on my covers
<br>
Past lovers fell to the shadow of graves,
<br>
To the night, I am its unwilling slave
<br>
The cost for eternal life was so dear,
<br>
Night after night I live in greatest fear.... ]]></description>

Ode to My  Ancestry

The name Shelley fills me with such pride

But your time has passed in a swift tide

			<description><![CDATA[ The Vampire&#39;s Kiss
<br>
<br>
I was out in a treacherous dark night,
<br>
Bats in the belfry took ebony flight.
<br>
I sat alone, clutching my darkened heart,
<br>
My darkened heart that had been torn apart.
<br>
I heard echoes nearby, from a dark crypt,
<br>
As I heard them, by great fear I was gripped.
<br>
The voices beckoned me to the dark tomb
<br>
I entered this forbidden place of doom,
<br>
In this dark hour, I saw a darkened form,
<br>
It approched me like a slow-comming storm... ]]></description>

and, so advanced are our times, and few of what is printed can hardly appal our modern day society. Yet one morning my eyes widened themselves upon falling on

His face I cannot see,

But I know who it will be.
<br>
  
<br>
Through the shadow I see a cynical smirk.
<br>
Now I will disappear from this earth,

&#39;Cause He&#39;s the one who saw me first.

<br>
Under His hood of black, his teeth of white
<br>
Are always smiling, but can never bite
<br>
And will kill all within His sight.

<br>
With a light touch, He took my soul
<br>
Into hell with others in the red bowl.

I only add to it,... ]]></description>
