The Ancient [Unfinished]

This is another poem much like 'The Vampire' I was tyring more dark, goth-romantic styles & this is what I came up with in homeroom class. Enjoy.

Long years spent pacing.

Memories retracing.

What is my ancient mind chasing?

A love that needs replacing.

 

In a castle alone.

On a skull-riddled throne,

I sit down with a groan.

impatient nails click against stone.

 

Replace my love?

Who's hands were soft like twin doves?

Who was my angel from above?

'Tis something I couldn't dream of.

 

Love like that is a one time thing.

I don't want a one night fling.

Or an empty face wearing her ring.

Or one who wants me because I'm a king.
