I left you there on that fateful dark track,
A body cold and dead, lifeless on its back.
The dusty Earth quenches its endless thirst,
You will not be the last and neither are the first.
Sleep well sweet child, seems you were cursed...

I like that you write the frequent "not the first nor the last" backwards. Because the change is unique.

Oh Sis.....I feel so bad for writting this now you have seen it...
It is just an oposite point of view on a poem written by masterblaster I never meant to apear evil. I am so sorry...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaw You know what- what I felt was a neutral energy-
as if You stepped outside the box- not from within if that makes sense-
I was seeing like a storyteller speaking to another person-
retelling what had happened- (like what is done around the campfire)
so I did not sense any evil

My Goodness Bubs,
Dark and yet one can feel the saddness and love for this person in your words!
But that is no surprise to me, as I know you quite well, and I know your heart, how it works!
Congrats on the Gold!
and love

Speak of darkness!! This is beyond dark and sent shiver down my spine. Also, you just let me realize that I have a typo in my lastest poem. lol
Good luck!!

Wow, this is dark.
I love the rhyme, i'm not normally a fan of rhyme but it works well here. Doesn't appear at all forced and really helps with the flow.
Beautiful yet morbid imagery throughout, you really capture the reader.
best of luck in the contest!
