Slumbering Death

Missing image
From within the stars he came,
carrying nightmares and untold pain.
Tempest boils in his blazing eyes,
craving one thing only, your demise.

Stealthily creeping into your mind,
delivering all the terrors of time.
Watch you cringe, shudder and shake,
knowing from this you'll never wake.

Ensnaring thoughts with vile visions,
panic rises with repugnant precision.
Swivet swings with flailing arms,
as he unleashes lethal charms.

Closed eyes wide, see bloodshed flow,
neurons sear, buzzing to and fro.
Whispers pass through slumbering lips,
as muscles contort and flesh rips.

Disjointed eyes roll round and spin,
mounting his pleasure from within.
Innocence taken, essence drained,
empty skin and bare bone remain.

Another soul overpowered by dread,
adding one more to his count of the dead.
Decaying aura savagely exposed,
another death shall be misdiagnosed.

    Great poem my favorite part was when you said "Stealthily creeping into your mind,
    delivering all the terrors of time.
    Watch you cringe, shudder and shake,
    knowing from this you'll never wake." Very well written. Please read over the rules this is a warning i will check up on this and if you still didnt read them i will DQ you. thanks for entering tho

    Demented torture!

    Esquisite is the pain of words such as these. Their acid sears holes in my poor brain as brain juice drips through the empty cavities of my eyes. A well deserved gold for my Demented lady. I love your new home page. Its darkness and dankness makes for a great dungeon. Thanks!
