Colder

She stepped into the pool of blood
Surrounding her bed
Flicked back her hair
Messed out of place

She let the warmth
Seep through the gaps inbetween her toes
Taking in every bit she can
Into her system

She watches the blood
Swirling
And rising
The deep sensuous colour
Almost giving her an orgasmic chill

She then crashed to her knees
And began to drink the voluptuous liquid
Seeping it in

As her brother lay dying on the bed she just left
The blood dripped from his head onto the pool of blood on the floor
And as she drank
She felt his blood becoming alive once more
Inside of her

She screamed
Blood dribbling down her chin
She kissed her brother on the forehead
And licked his lips
With more care than she had given when she had killed him
She left a blood-stained lip-stick mark on his head
She sucked the last of the blood from the floorboards
And flew out of the window
Glass crashing all around her
And she struck the ground with such a bang

And that was it
A waste of lives
She was stung by the bitterness of revenge
And now
She lay
Bleeding, as her brother was
Beginning to
Slowly
Get
Colder

    Yeah, I've always had a soft spot for the word orgasmic, I dunno why, I don't like erotica...
    Thanks for your comment

    Hey hon,
    Thank you for entering the contest, but I need you do something before I do the judging. I think you have a typo and I would like you to change it and the tell me it was changed, I cannot judge this til' this is changed and I would like to judge it Sunday.

    She lay
    Bleeding, as her brother was
    Begginging to
    Slowly
    Get
    Colder

    The bold word, what is that suppose to be??? Begging or Beginning?
    I hope you can get that changed before Sunday!
    I love this piece.

    Bloody good :p

    Well il start with sayin i think this poem is simply great. Repeated use of 'She' can be viewed as a strengthening of the (albeit grotesque) femininity of the character.
    I particularly liked the first stanza wherein 'she' displays a psychotic coolness (or coldness ) , fixing her hair while not bothering about the pool of blood.
    Another theme which comes out of the poem is of blood and sexuality where words such as voluptuous and sensuous are used as description.
    All in all , i really like this poem.

    ...and you wouldn't fly away, right? raises eyebrow This was rather interesting, made me feel a bit creeped out. But that's a good sign of your writing ability! Great use of vocab. Keep trying on that unpersonal stuff, I know you can do it =)

    hey avampireslament, I don't usually write poems like this, I was in a twisted mood at the time when I wrote this, and it just kinda came out. It was the first poem I'd written like this before, I guess I'd written some twisted ones about how much I hate my brother, but yeah... this is the first of my kind, I quite enjoyed writing it, I might write some more. I'm glad it brightened up your day and that you liked it

    heya andyharper. She wasn't neccessarily a vampire, as I said to nicolisis, "Even though it wasn't about a vampire, I kinda had the image of one in my head while I was writing it" but yeah. I'm really glad you liked my poem, even though you're not a huge fan of the genre, thanks for messaging

    . . . Wow. . . . This is scary, creepy. . . . I'm not a big fan of the vampire poems, but every once in a while, I'll come across a really good one. This was very creative, and it held my attention to the very end. Every line left me craving the next line and the next, craving to hear/read more, just as a vampire craves blood. . . . This was very creative. Keep writing.

    Though it is a tab bit creepy, it's a good poem. It was written exceptionally well, and conveyed a lot of unseen emotion. You could feel hate for your brother..Very good write.
