My dear, why do you look so frightened?
I take your hand,
and hold it tight-
a display of love,
not of might!
I only wish
to walk you home,
and my obvious motive
you must have known.
You wore that dress,
with your neck laid bare,
and pushed your hair back,
so all I could do was stare.
And the way you kiss!
With your tongue on my teeth;
you must have known
of the passion I keep.
So as I leave you on your doorstep,
push your hair back one last time
Let me just...gently...kiss...
the neck on which I'd love to dine.
By morning you'll remember not,
and I will have gone on my way.
After all, who would you tell,
when they found your body the next day?
Author notes
I don't know...I just felt like I need to have a rhyming poem about a sadistic vampire date. ^_^ Too many LK. Hamilton and Kim Harrison books, I suppose.
Please tell me what you think

Thank you for entering my contest.
Well, that was...interesting
Creative.
Flow was great, and imagery, superb...but the displays a bit "overwhelming", so to speak....mayb insert some spaces?
job well done

Thank you! ^_^
I was debating the spaces are I was writing it too. I usually put them in, but I thought for this one there might be too few words per stanza to justify spaces. But, since you think they ought to be there, that's enough for me.
