Darkness embraces this loss of sight
Listen quite closely and you shall find
There is no such thing as silence of mind

Eyes sewn shut by fright and no longer see
Lost within this seemingly timeless breath
The path we walk is the path of death

House Of The DamnedHouse Of The Damned

The ghost felt forgotten in the house of the damned
Since his wife and child had died in a car crash
The madness and depression had set in
He spent night after night in his office
Listening to the voices in his head
And writing in his journal
Short stories, poems and observations
He thought he had an unique talent
A modern day Edgar Allan Poe
After his death he hoped he would be famous
He sent his poetry to publishers
But always got a negative response
The alcohol helped ease the pain
Dampened down the negative thoughts
One night everything fell apart
He played a piece of sad classical music
He took a few pills and some r

Ode to the SirenShe calls to me with song and my strong heart melts,
Like iron cast into the forge,
Enthralled by her beauty I come forward,
Even though I know,
That she only seeks to gorge,
Upon my flesh,
Staring up into her eyes,
I know that smarter guys would despise,
My utter weakness to her spell,
Gnawing my neck down to the bone,
I know that she will drag me into the depths Hell,
But it is as if my legs are cast in stone,
I do not flee even though I see,
Imminent doom approaching,
As the reapers come for me,
Isn’t it tragic,
How I have fallen victim to her magic?
----Engraved into the walls of a vacant ship docked
within the harbor of Port

No One Can Hear You ScreamSilence prevails,
an endless, comfortless silence,
which is worse than death,
because you remain conscious
of how utterly alone you are.

All dreams are nightmares
that come without sleep
when you never know if you
are awake.

Time is without meaning,
and you begin to wonder
if you still have any existence,
even madness dare not tread here,
but instead something worse,
and yet unnamable, unknowable,
the utter loss of self.

Denied even the mercy
of waiting upon death,
when you cannot even be certain
of what life is any longer.

How easily the mind turns against you,
begins to consume itself,
and you can no longer trust your own thoughts,

MirrorTake one look at yourself,
"What are you?"

The figure remains motionless,
Clear orbs glaring icy daggers,
Mouth curving into a twisted snarl,
Hands finally moving at lightning speed,
Palms colliding with the fragile barrier.

"What are you!?"

A jagged smirk is painted on the figure,
Laughter resonates from within,
Sick and disturbing and wicked,
Fear begins to invade your mind,
As your body trembles along with it.

The glass is cracking,
Shiny shards scatter across the floor,
Crimson liquid oozes out,
Soaking into everything.

"Stop it! That’s enough!"

'Only you can stop it,
But will you?'

The sealed room continues to fill,
With no

The girl in the pondIt was a warm summer night when I found her.
Her dress was white with yellow sunflowers,
and her auburn hair was spread out around her pale face.

It looked like an ever changing halo
moving gently in a soft breeze.

She had lost a shoe

Like Cinderella

Her deep, blue eyes stared into heaven
and the freckles of her skin drew constellations
against the pale background to mirror the stars above.

Fish gently nibbled at her fingers and nestled in her hair
paying no heed to her ruby lips which her last breath had left open
almost like an invitation.

I looked at her
fascinated

I loved her...

Thinking it was the least I could do
now that she ha

Catching death of coldIt’s cold, COLD, there’s frost and icicles at me bones
Feeling cold, COLD, I stand and face the chill alone
No sun, no moon, no stars, nothing to tell me what time it is
Oh it’s cold, it’s COLD, and now my mind’s all gone to frizz

With the arctic at my backdoor, and winter at me front
The frost and chill be prowling, I can feel it on the hunt
Icy vines they creeping up my arms, tiny tendrils they unfurl
Feeling cold, COLD, winter’s dominating my world.

Jack Frost has come to take me, he’s broken into my home
Sees my heart be icy cold, yet warm blood beneath my bones
His winter’s all about me,

The Mask of FreedomCreepy voices sprung from the dark side of Lucy's room
Oversized masks on faces appeared from the emptiness

Join us...Its time for you to be relieved from your pain..

Morning came, and Lucy awoke from her frightening dream
Every night, Lucy dreamt of the masked man and his army of masks

Just like the night before, Lucy cried to sleep
One day she woke up to the sound of her mother screaming, another fight...
In the end she stopped caring, yet she kept crying
Not that she blames herself, but she wants things things back to what they used to be...

Things were always bad, you were just too blind. Join us..

The tears stopped and one day, the

MonstersVampires have no hearts,
But zombies have no brains;
One to love, one to plot without pain.
Ghosts have no bodies,
But werewolves have two;
Both can haunt by the silver moon.
Experiments with patched together souls,
But two in one body don't make one whole.
Mad scientists they truly are.
All with something lost, and some with too much gained,
With no peace in Death
they hath lain.

anthropophagii would like to devour you
gorge myself on your curves
and contours, your entire
being

The Wake

Literature / Poetry / Horror / Free Verse

In the midst of my slumber, I shift & I stir.
For something faint beckons me, of that I am sure,
My eyes flutter open as I lay in the dark,
Prodded suddenly awake by some unseen spark.

Slowly I become aware of my restriction,
My place of rest surrounds me with such constriction.
Outside I know it is less confining...
With the howling moon and the shining wind combining.

It seems as if much time has passed whilst here I've laid,
And I wonder if the world outside the same has stayed.
I come to reason and I know that departed is the light,
& the world that awaits is dressed in the mantle of night.

Here there is little room for movement,
To stretch and stand would be an improvement.
The soft cage that imprisons me allows only for so much,
What I need is to get out and feel the moonlight's touch.

My bowels twist and writhe, maddening agony,
Fierce hunger boils within and strains to escape me.
It's rage becoming an unbearable pounding,
The rush and insanity is completely astounding!

In the battle between it and myself, it is stronger.
I realize, beaten, I cannot take it any longer,
And with all I can gather & collect,
I do all I can to ensure my jailing is wrecked.

I tear away at this solitary prison,
Like a raging beast that has just arisen,
I tear away at what has kept me under,
My kicking and growling making loud thunder.

I claw my way out to greet the stars and night sky,
The rush of adrenaline makes me feel I could fly.
I lurch out of the place of my resting torment,
Standing tall I am clearly no longer dormant.

Finally the calm night embraces my skin,
Woe to my resting-place, the fun will now begin.
My eyes dart from place to place, wild and manic,
And the trees shiver and wave in what seems like panic.

For they know what is next...

I thirst, and just like so many nights before,
I go forth on my eerie march, a tidal bore,
I tread through the gates in shadowy form,
Awakened again, to take the world by storm.

~whereigo Feb 24, 2005

Must say, i like the way it flows, the rhythm... it's dark and it's eerie. just as i like it. And reminds me of vampires, rather....

there's nuthing better than a tall dark vampire.

although, this one aint even remotely aproachable. tough luck

wonderful piece of writting, and a job well executed. :clapping:

~Vidz Dec 3, 2004

beautiful poem, and great imagery,rhyming scheme is perfect everything matches up great and i love the little story this poem wove as well, very much reminds me of vampires

~thedarkcloak Dec 5, 2004 Professional General Artist

ooooh thanks!!!

I'm so glad SOME people still check out my written works.

I tend to go in and out of thinking if I should just delete them from my gallery, but if just one person reads em now and then and it does something for them... it's worth leaving them up.

Heh, funny that. There's more to it... some people have mentioned werewolf, vampire, zombie, hell mummy too I think...

Ponder it over some more.

~Vidz Dec 5, 2004

your welcome and of course they do is a good poem

~GuyaricanKitten Nov 1, 2004 Student Digital Artist

It sounds like you have a whole werewolf thing... though I'm not really found of the beats, I do like how you put the poem along... I could relate in someway, which is what a poet would want, no? you did a very lovely job on this. I really like it alot.

~thedarkcloak Nov 13, 2004 Professional General Artist

interesting! You are the second person to say that. Others have said zombie, vampire, even midnight snack. Heh.

~Silentshadows Oct 28, 2004
