immortal

02/2013 (Blood type B: Installment Fifteen)

The beauty of a soul

    Twisted and glorified 

Betrothed to the darkness

     Beheld in the twilight

Woven with the encumbrance of wrought

     I ran, driven to the brink of madness 

Enabled to cling to life on the very essence of your vulnerability

     Composing compassion and radiating fervent lust

Hostility arose 

      Impeccably strewn by the blazing flames of your heart

Bringing me to inadvertently clash with our demons

      To procure a safe haven for our love

Which is stricken by bonds of steel and chains of despair

       But none the less

The blood that flows through my veins yearns for your nails

        To release torrents of it down my back

Reaping the rewards of a long awaited savage outburst

         Earned in rage and in horror

Screams and moans

         Dark shadows of a time

When I was the ruthless embodiment of a creature

         Viscous with malice

Contrived to incite a triage of unstoppable dominance

          Clawing at the recesses of my brain   

Desperate to reach the surface and escape into the realm we dwelt

          The simple utterance of your name

Still stirs me to such a capacity of volatile bloodlust

           And like a vampire I stand in the darkness

Empowered to hold fast to our whispers 

           Of promises between lovers of the night

Us

           Immortal

Reviews

The run to immortality so well collaborated here, with Darkabyss...
Your styles, are mingled perfectly in this one, and you both are an open kind of how do you say it...

awareness, soul, channel, to let in what maybe ever has been home, in this one... :) makes me want to yearn for the dark side too... well expressed the both of you. You certainly, both have listened, deeply to the most raw emotions, making this one, edge to edge, high and lows, it's a truly amazing piece of togetherness... sigh, wow. Superb!!!

This was one of the better writes of yours Joshua.
You kept the emotion flowing with a constant pressure. The mindset was easy to stay with as well. The write overall stayed "connected".
Good work.

OMG! You are absolutely amazing!... to write with such a graphic, yet, astute perception cultivates
a scorching imagery for me...extremely savage in it's appeal...

Well penned, Joshua!~xoxo~:)

I was surprised to see, not a chapter, but a poem. It was vivid, descriptive, and though its unorthodox method of formatting threw me off a bit, I enjoyed it.

Thank you for taking the time to review.. It is the latest chapter of my book called Blood Type B which is a compilation of metaphorical vampire poetry.
