Dark Passions

I've recently won a few contests so I've got some extra points which means it's time for another contest. I've been in a rather dark mood lately so that's what I'm looking for, some really good dark writes for my mood to simmer in. So come on into my dungeon of darkness and bring your best poetry with you.

The following will be accepted:
1. Dark Romance/Love
2. Dark Fantasy (Vampires, Sirens, Werewolves, etc.)
3. Dark Erotica/Sensual (As long as it's tastefully done and labeled as such)
4. Anything else that's dark as long as it does not involve cutting, murder, or satanic worship.

Rules: (Yes I hate them too but we have to have them)
-No Sticky Caps/Chat Speak.
-Make sure it's on a background that's readable.
-Please, for the sake of my sanity use spell check.

I may add more HM's depending on how many entries I get.
