Grim Reaper

All misconceptions should be left at the door,

For I am nothing like you have imagined.

I am tall and handsome, I am smart and strong,

For I decide the fate of all who meet me.

You think that I am gory, or heartless and cold.

But dearest, reconsider, all that you have known.

I am the night incarnate, the darkest of them all...

I am the killer darling, that cannot be escaped.

I'll knock your socks off, sweetheart,

And I will change your life,

Once you love me truly,

You cannot leave alive.

Very dark, I like it :-D I suppose this brings to light the fact that sometimes things aren't as they seem, and that you should be careful if you think something doesn't feel right,.

Anyway, great piece, kudos!

This was good! I think it captured the core essence and drive of a killer. At the same time, it works as a reminder that getting to close without insight can become quite dangerous.

Don't go home with the dark man with the knife from the bar...in essence.

The images and style of wording being from the view point of the killer worked really well!
