    I Danced With Death Tonight

    I danced with Death tonight
    In a dress made of the moon's silver light
    and a boquet of razors
    held on my right

    We danced for hours
    crying
    bleeding
    laughing in each other's faces
    and yet, I still held Him tight

    I danced with God last night
    He held me like a child
    and said everything would be all right

    He spun me round
    and round
    and round s'more
    Calmed my every nerve
    and yet, I still pushed Him away

    I'll dance with you tonight
    With love as my dress
    and an extra set of razors
    just for you

    I'll dance with you till we can dance no more
    then open my wrists for you
    I'll let you nurse from my open wounds
    and do the same for you

    We'll dance in Heaven tonight
    on a bed of clouds so very white
    in clothes made of the purest silk
    and God on our side

    We'll dance
    and laugh
    and love forever
    since suicide is the only way to be together

    inspiring. I loved it. I reminded me of a Romeo/Juliet romance. It was a little dark but I loved it all the same. you got a great talet for writing.

    it looks like you're looking for form, and kind of wishy-washy making some type of form, so i would either make a meter or don't. anyway, it reminded me of HIM, except with Christian themes, and suicide and Christianity don't mix quite well at all so I'd say there's a definite clash of desires within the mind of the poet, and a clash of themes in the poem.

    :teehee::blush:
    Thanks.
    I have more stuff, but I've been trying to refrain from posting any of it anywhere because I've dealt with plagerism problems in the past, plus, I'm in the middle of getting the stupid book I have, published. :p


    Thanks to everyone else for the comments, as well. :chaz:

    er, thanks?
    lol, I didn't really mean to include any religious matter into the poem itself, but nothing else seemed to work very well. *shrugs*
