Strolling in a yard of stones
Even as my spirit moans
From this dark and solemn scene
In which none can intervene.
Reading all the engraved lines
Upon these so earthly shrines
Riddled and strewn with dead vines.
Now I slowly brush away
All the marks that speak decay
On this long forgotten slab
Of gray so dreary and drab.
As a tear falls from my eye
I feel my soul heave a sigh
And my heart tries to deny.
I feel a cold breeze surround
And my heart begins to pound
I sense arms around my frame
And hands work till I exclaim.
As ghostly lips kiss my neck
And a tongue begins to fleck
On my skin along it's trek.
One cold hand runs up my skirt
And another in my shirt,
Stroking me right to the edge
And hurling me past the ledge.
While this is our sweet adieu
And I know we're almost through
I can not stand to leave you.
I close my eyes and we kiss
Even though I feel amiss.
I rest in your cool embrace
As your kisses you retrace;
Now you whisper in my ear
Telling me, 'Goodbye, my dear.'
And tears fall as you disappear.

You have a knack for making me feel ur emotions. Very vivid, genius, dreamy, and def creative. Casper a ladies man?

This seems to be about a visit to the grave of a lost lover and the ghost of the lover feeling the leading character of the poem off in a loving and sensual way. It is well written and entertaining.

Thank you for pointing out that typo to me; it was supposed to be we're. I'm also glad you liked the poem. Thank you once again! Blessed Be, ~Lilly~

Stanza 4 - L6 you have “were”. It should either be “we are” or “we’re”, other than that this is a good poem. Good luck to you in the competition.
