twilight
*Grave Challenge*
I
Twilight on the grave
Dew settles on night
Paranormal heart, I crave
By warm candlelight
Moisture kissed quagmire
Two hearts vapid sound
Yearning eyes afire
True loveβs been found
I take you in my arms
Fetid smell across skin
Like faded floral charms
Flesh parched thin
My sweet undead lover
In coffin, upon hushed breath
Through tears I discover
I fear not Lamia's death
II
O lover how I wept
Lost in the night
In your arms swept
Warmed by candlelight
I long for an embrace
Ignite my cadaver heart
Caressing your sweet face
Smitten by loveβs dart
In stasis we inspirit folklore
Within shadows of the dark
Entombed on the moor
Times leaves no mark
EntwinedΒ thornsΒ ofΒ rose
Yearning eternal laughter
As one we decompose
Thrivent in here-after

My goodness...yet another challenge!Β They are coming thick and fast! I am still on the "thinking about it" stage for the vampireΒ challenge ?Β and it still yet may or may not come to anything.Β Β
This one you have written here is very good, Poetess, it's lovely and dark x
yeah, the challenges are very quick but you need not try and keep up. take your time the ones that are participating are waiting to read all the lovely entries. the challenges are there for everyone. everyone writes at their own pace and there is no set timeline to how they are posted. I was reading earlier that a couple of others are doing the challenges and that is so great. this is a super way to get others to read your work and all the effort put into writing. When you are ready to move forwards I hope you can step up and come up with a challenge. thank you for the support TinaΒ
The language is amazing in this poem.

My Dear Lisa,
You must be more careful, to issue a challenge, and then write a poem of yours on that subject, that no one can surpass.Β You don't want to scare off all your ardent supporters, and make them feel like underlings.Β Of course, the most brave of them, will accept your dare.
All my love,
Larry xxx
Thank you Larry for your kind words, I know so many poets on here that surpass my humble scribbles. I write what is only lurking in the depths of my soul.Β
My Dear Lisa,
"Lurking in the depths of your soul", is the "devilish" talent to take your readers to far away places.
All my love,
Larry xxx
Thank you kindly LarryΒ
