Possessed

Long slender fingers 

Reaching 

From the darkness 

Discolored 

Dark purple fingers 

Sharp 

Pointed fingernails that 

Scrape 

At my skin 

Screams 

From my mouth 

Vermilion 

Blood stains everywhere 

Scarlet 

Lips that smirk 

Lilac 

Splotches all over 

Dirt 

Smears her skin 

Tears 

Streak her face 

Cold 

Ice blue eyes 

Tangled 

Dirty blond hair 

I 

Almost feel sorry 

Until 

She changes me 

Into 

One of her 

Then

Long slender fingers 

Reaching 

From the darkness

As I read this, I thought of a static that was interupting a tv program or a radio. The way the words cut in and out. I made me imagine how this girl was being possessed and how she tried to resist, but then eventually gave in. It was creepy, eerily, and evil. Love it!

Thx :)

I love this poem, though consider reducing the amount of times you use the word "fingers" or "fingernails". It gets kind of repetitive.

[Star Wolf]

Nicely done. I really like this a lot!

Dark haunted write.

I'm not sure if you intended for it to be read the way I did, but I see it like a broken record. That echoes eerily over and over, repeating the haunting lines again and again. It reminds me of the clutches of a virus, how it grasps the life of a victim, then uses him to spread it further. Well done.
