The Urge to Kill

 

 

The memories haunt me

The Death, it stays

The blood on my hands never go away

On my knees they lay

Twitching and turning...Waiting for another

Another woman, man, child, or cat

Anything that will react

To the tearing of its flesh on a razor-sharp blade

To the sight of where their friends bodies are laid

Screaming for someone to come to their aid

The one that comes is always me

Helping to get the bodies free

When that is done the friend looks at me

I smile, and give a little chuckle then I say

"Its your turn to lay in a heap."

Haha, I enjoyed this immensely!

"Another woman, man, child, or cat

Those two lines had me laughing.

Very nice prosing as it was spoken from Grim Reaper's mouth... erm, he doesn't have any mouth, doesn't he? Alright, let me rephrase that; Spoken through Grim Reaper's teeth... There, that's more like it...

AnYwAy, it's really great and I really enjoyed reading it. Somehow, it just reminded me of this old flick; "Meet Joe Black" in some ways...

LOVE IT! I'm going to add this to my favorite because I really like it. Good job! :D Love the whole thing.

Oh E! Absolutely scrumptious! The dark energy in this piece positively pulses with a life all on it's own. The screams are audible as visions of the bringer of death creeps into the shadow of the mind!
And a perfect ending. Where those who hear the screams and come running are next!

A wonderfully tradgic ballad!

Much Love,
Aaron

lol...bloodlust...

The narrator sounds desperate. ;) Great emotion in this poem; it's as if this rampage is a drug... or a fetish. :P lol! I also admire the imagery you have here; very vivid. Nice work. ^^
